  • Late or last neonatal period (7 days to 28 days).

It is characterized by the transition from extra uterine life and rapid growth and development. It is the common vulnerable time or period of human life as it accounts for more high mortalities and morbidities, however, most of them are preventable.

The pattern of neonatal disease is a useful indicator of the availability, utilization and effectiveness of maternal and child health care services.

It varies from place to place and from time to time even in the same locality. Information on admission and mortality patterns of hospitalized neonates should reflect the major causes of illnesses and standard of care provided to neonates in a particular locality.

To improve neonatal services with better overall outcomes and less sever morbidities early identification of the risk factors is paramount so that appropriate interventions can be directed towards the most prevalent and treatable neonatal illnesses. To achieve this goal, it is important to study the pattern of neonatal admissions

What does the primary outcome measure?

document the number, & outcome in neonates with respiratory diseases admitted to neonatal intensive care units (time frame: 12 months). The study lists 7 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT05809063, which also lists 3 linked publications.

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.
