About this study

Official title: Nasal Intermittent Positive-Pressure Ventilation vs Nasal Continuous Positive Airway Pressure for Twin Infants With Respiratory Distress Syndrome

In the present study, we hypothesized that primary mode nIPPV initiated shortly after birth would decrease the incidence of intubation or death in twin infants when compared to nCPAP.

Read the detailed description

After inclusion of eligible twins infants,one of the twins was supported by nCPAP and another nIPPV.

Being tested

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • nIPPVDevice

    Also called nIPPV:Nasal Intermittent Positive Pressure Ventilation

    one of the twins was randomly allocated to nIPPV

  • nCPAPDevice

    Also called nCPAP:Nasal Continuous Positive Airway Pressure

    another of the twins was allocated to nCPAP

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing nIPPV and nCPAP in people with Neonatal Respiratory Distress Syndrome, run by Daping Hospital and the Research Institute of Surgery of the Third Military Medical University at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Dec 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

incidence of intubation (time frame: 48h). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 7 Dec 2017.
