About this study

Official title: Outcomes of Neonatal Resuscitation in a Resource Limited Setting on the Thailand-Myanmar Border

The primary objective of this study is to describe mortality of newborns who received basic, advanced or no neonatal resuscitation immediately after birth at Shoklo Malaria Research Unit.

Read the detailed description

This is a retrospective, descriptive study of hospital records will be conducted. The existing dataset of newborns of ≥28 weeks gestation delivered at Shoklo Malaria Research Unit clinics from January 2008 to December 2015 will be analysed.

In the dataset, 15224 newborns fulfill the inclusion criteria and therefore they will all be analysed with IBM SPSS Statistics 22 for Windows.

Descriptive statistics will be used to define: a) the proportion of newborns alive at 24 hours, 7 days, 28 days, and at 1 year, following resuscitation at SMRU birthing rooms and b) the number of newborns requiring basic and advanced resuscitation.

Measurements of correlation coefficient will be used to compare Shoklo Developmental test scores and developmental milestones attained at 1 year in resuscitated and non-resuscitated infants. The Pearson correlation coefficient will be used if the relationship between two variables is found to be linear.

Antenatal, perinatal and postnatal characteristics associated with neonatal resuscitation will be defined by logistic regression analysis.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Mortality 24 hours after birth of babies who received basic resuscitation

    Measured: 24 hours

  2. Mortality 24 hours after birth of babies who received advanced resuscitation

    Measured: 24 hours

  3. Mortality 24 hours after birth of babies who did not receive neonatal resuscitation

    Measured: 24 hours

Secondary outcomes (11)
  1. Mortality at 7 days

    Measured: 7 days

  2. Mortality at 28 days

    Measured: 28 days

  3. Mortality at one year

    Measured: 1 year

  4. Proportion of live births requiring basic or advanced neonatal resuscitation.

    Measured: 24 hours

  5. Number of newborns who received basic resuscitation, as a proportion of all live births.

    Measured: 24 hours

  6. Number of newborns who received advance resuscitation, as a proportion of all live births.

    Measured: 24 hours

  7. Shoklo Developmental test scores at 1 year in infants who received basic or advanced neonatal resuscitation or no resuscitation.

    Measured: up to 1 year of age

  8. Month of achieved milestones (crawl, walk, talk) in in infants who received basic or advanced neonatal resuscitation or no resuscitation.

    Measured: up to 1 year of age

  9. characteristics of antenatal infant receiving neonatal resuscitation compared to non-resuscitated infants as assessed by physiological parameter

    Measured: 24 hours

  10. characteristics of perinatal infants receiving neonatal resuscitation compared to non-resuscitated infants as assessed by physiological parameter

    Measured: 24 hours

  11. characteristics of neonatal infants receiving neonatal resuscitation compared to non-resuscitated infants as assessed by physiological parameter

    Measured: 24 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Neonatal Resuscitation, run by University of Oxford at 1 site in Thailand.

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 2 inclusion and 3 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 6 Oct 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 Thailand. 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?

Mortality 24 hours after birth of babies who received basic resuscitation (time frame: 24 hours). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 6 Oct 2017; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
