What is being measured

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

  1. NCPAP

    The study will determine if the RAM Nasal Cannula is providing adequate CPAP to neonates. This will be measured with the Braden Q score. The Braden Q Scale is composed of seven subscales. All seven subscales are rated from 1 (least favorable)to4(most favorable); patients receive only one score per subscale.

    Measured: 5 days

  2. Bi-PAP

    The study will determine if the RAM Nasal Cannula is providing adequate Bi-PAP to neonates. This will be measured with the Braden Q score every 3 hours. The Braden Q Scale is composed of seven subscales. All seven subscales are rated from 1 (least favorable)to4(most favorable); patients receive only one score per subscale.

    Measured: 5 days

  3. NCPAP

    The study will determine if the RAM Nasal Cannula is providing adequate CPAP to neonates. This will be measured with SpO2 Level every 3 hours. The SpO2 will be measured in percentage

    Measured: 5 days

  4. NCPAP

    The study will determine if the RAM Nasal Cannula is providing adequate CPAP to neonates. This will be measured with Pulse Oximetry Level every 3 hours. The pulse oximetry is measured in millimeters

    Measured: 5 days

  5. Bi-PAP

    The study will determine if the RAM Nasal Cannula is providing adequate Bi-PAP to neonates. This will be measured with SpO2 Level every 3 hours. The SpO2 will be measured in percentage

    Measured: 5 days

  6. Bi-PAP

    The study will determine if the RAM Nasal Cannula is providing adequate Bi-PAP to neonates. This will be measured with Pulse Oximetry Level every 3 hours. The pulse oximetry is measured in millimeters

    Measured: 5 days

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. High Flow Humidity

    The study will determine if the RAM Nasal Cannula administers high flow humidity (>8Ipm) . This will be measured with the Braden Q score, every 3 hours.The Braden Q Scale is composed of seven subscales. All seven subscales are rated from 1 (least favorable)to4(most favorable); patients receive only one score per subscale.

    Measured: 5 days

  2. High Flow Humidity

    The study will determine if the RAM Nasal Cannula administers high flow humidity (>8Ipm) . This will be measured with Pulse Oximetry Level every 3 hours. The pulse oximetry is measured in millimeters.

    Measured: 5 days

  3. High Flow Humidity

    The study will determine if the RAM Nasal Cannula administers high flow humidity (>8Ipm) . This will be measured with SpO2 Level every 3 hours. The SpO2 will be measured in percentage

    Measured: 5 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing RAM Nasal Cannula in people with Neonatal Respiratory Distress, run by Englewood Hospital and Medical Center at 1 site in United States.

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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Aug 2021. 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 United States. 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 was stopped early (reason given: change in clinical practice). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

NCPAP (time frame: 5 days). The study lists 6 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 20 Aug 2021.
