About this study

Official title: Nasal Intermittent Positive Pressure Ventilation Versus Nasal Continuous Positive Airway Pressure Durante la Somministrazione Del Surfattante Con Tecnica LISA

The goal of this randomized controlled study is to compare the efficacy of using NIPPV versus NCPAP during the LISA procedure in very preterm infants.

The main question it aims to answer is:

  • Does NIPPV during the LISA procedure decrease the need for a second dose of surfactant or the need of mechanical ventilation during the first 72 hours of life in comparison with NCPAP? Infants with gestational age between 25+0 and 31+6 weeks of gestation with RDS who do not require VM and treated with NCPAP and FiO2 >0.30 within the first 6 hours of life who received the first dose of caffeine will be eligible for enrollment in the study Participants will be randomized to receive surfactant with conventional LISA procedure, i.e. performed during NCPAP, or with LISA procedure performed during NIPPV.
Being tested

What participants receive

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

  • Nasal Intermittent Positive Pressure Ventilation (NIPPV)Procedure or surgery

    In this group, infants will receive NIPPV during LISA procedure.

  • Nasal continuous positive airway pressure (NCPAP)Procedure or surgery

    In this group, infants will receive NCPAP during LISA procedure.

What is being measured

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

  1. Surfactant or mechanical ventilation

    Need for a second dose of surfactant or mechanical ventilation

    Measured: The need for a second dose of surfactant or mechanical ventilation will be evaluated within the first 72 hour of life

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Noninvasive ventilation

    Duration of noninvasive ventilation

    Measured: Participants will be monitored for the duration of their hospital stay, which is an average of 10 weeks

  2. Mechanical ventilation

    Duration ofmechanical ventilation

    Measured: Participants will be monitored for the duration of their hospital stay, which is an average of 10 weeks

  3. Bronchopulmonary dysplasia

    Frequency of mild, moderate, and severe bronchopulmonary dysplasia

    Measured: Participants will be monitored for the duration of their hospital stay, which is an average of 10 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Nasal Intermittent Positive Pressure Ventilation (NIPPV) and Nasal continuous positive airway pressure (NCPAP) in people with Respiratory Distress Syndrome, Newborn, run by University of Florence at 1 site in Italy.

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 8 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 3 Apr 2023. 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 Italy. 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?

Surfactant or mechanical ventilation (time frame: The need for a second dose of surfactant or mechanical ventilation will be evaluated within the first 72 hour of life). 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 3 Apr 2023.
