About this study

Official title: Evaluation of the Efficacy of Different Surfactant Preparations in Preterm Infants by Lung Ultrasound

To compare the lung ultrasound scores after two different natural surfactant administration as a parameter reflecting lung inflation. Poractant alfa decreases lung ultrasound scores as efficient as beractant treatment

Read the detailed description

Outcomes:

Improvement of Lung usg scores after surfactanct and the difference between groups at different time points (2nd and 6hr).

Secondary outcome:

The correlation between lung usg scores and clinical scores (silverman scores), FiO2 and PCO2 levels, failure of weaning to noninvasive ventilation after surfactant Preterm infants of 32 gestational weeks and below, who admit to the NICU with signs of respiratory distress, treated with non invasive or mechanical ventilation and require surfactant treatment in 6 hours of life will be enrolled.

Being tested
group 1 Poractant alfa, group 2 beractant

What participants receive

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

  • group 1 Poractant alfaDevice

    Comparison of lung usg scores in infants treated with Poractant alfa and Beractant: 0 indicates A-pattern (defined by the presence of the only A-lines); 1, B-pattern (defined as the presence of ≥3 well-spaced B-lines); 2, severe B-pattern (defined as the presence of crowded and coalescent B-lines with or without consolidations limited to the subpleural space); and 3, extended consolidations.

  • group 2 beractantDevice

    lComparison of lung usg scores in infants treated with Poractant alfa and Beractant: 0 indicates A-pattern (defined by the presence of the only A-lines); 1, B-pattern (defined as the presence of ≥3 well-spaced B-lines); 2, severe B-pattern (defined as the presence of crowded and coalescent B-lines with or without consolidations limited to the subpleural space); and 3, extended consolidations.

What is being measured

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

  1. Lung usg scores

    Evaluation of Lung Usg Scores in infants treated with surfactant in the first six hours (Brat lung usg scores). Each item scored 0-3. (0 indicates A-pattern (defined by the presence of the only A-lines); 1, B-pattern (defined as the presence of ≥3 well-spaced B-lines); 2, severe B-pattern (defined as the presence of crowded and coalescent B-lines with or without consolidations limited to the subpleural space); and 3, extended consolidations.)

    • Higher values represent a worse outcome

    Measured: first days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing group 1 Poractant alfa and group 2 beractant in people with Lung Ultrasound Scores, run by Zekai Tahir Burak Women's Health Research and Education Hospital at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 1 inclusion and 1 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Dec 2018. 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Davut Bozkaya, MD (+905053197531, drbozkaya@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Lung usg scores (time frame: first days). 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 11 Dec 2018.
