Trial summary

CO2 data, serving as a proxy marker for tidal volume, might enable titration of tidal volume/pressure thereby providing optimal ventilation during neonatal resuscitation. Currently there is insufficient data on Co2 levels for preterm babies requiring resuscitation. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Carbon -Di-Oxide Monitoring During Neonatal STAbilization at Delivery

CO2 data, serving as a proxy marker for tidal volume, might enable titration of tidal volume/pressure thereby providing optimal ventilation during neonatal resuscitation.

Currently there is insufficient data on Co2 levels for preterm babies requiring resuscitation. This study involves monitoring of CO2 during preterm stabilisation.

Read the detailed description

Measurement of exhaled CO2 in the delivery room is feasible, but clinical benefits of during neonatal transition have not been studied. Volume ventilation in the Neonatal unit has been shown to improve outcomes such BPD or death. Despite the proven benefits of volume ventilation in the neonatal unit volume guided resuscitation at birth remains an unproven and under-studied technique.

CO2 data, serving as a proxy marker for tidal volume, might enable titration of tidal volume/pressure thereby providing optimal ventilation during neonatal resuscitation. Currently there is insufficient data on Co2 levels for preterm babies requiring resuscitation. This data would help in finding out optimal resuscitation strategies (Pressures/volume, frequency of breaths) rather than providing the same for all infants throughout the process of resuscitation and would help us in better interpretation Co2 levels in the future resuscitation.

Investigators aim to study the impact of various clinical (Gestation, Birth weight, need for intubation/bag-mask ventilation) and resuscitative factors (use of inflation pressures, ventilation pressures, frequency of breaths, face mask ventilation, intubation) on CO2 during preterm stabilisation.

What is being measured

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

  1. Factors influencing carbon dioxide levels during preterm resuscitation

    To study the impact/correlation of various clinical factors (Gestation, Birth weight, need for intubation/bag-mask ventilation, surfactant administration, delayed cord clamping) and resuscitative factors (use of inflation pressures, ventilation pressures, frequency of breaths, face mask ventilation, intubation) on carbon dioxide measurements using MASIMO NOMOLINE capnography during preterm stabilisation.

    Measured: 1 year

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Correlation of Co2 with other parameters

    Correlation between oxygen saturation, CO2 and pulse rate.

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Resuscitation, run by South Tees Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust at 2 sites in United Kingdom.

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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Jun 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in United Kingdom. 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 Prakash Loganathan, MD (+447481492632, pkannanloganathan@nhs.net), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Factors influencing carbon dioxide levels during preterm resuscitation (time frame: 1 year). 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 30 Jun 2021.
