Surfactant for Neonate With Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS): A Randomized Controlled Trial

Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) in neonates has been defined, the role of surfactant is not clear. This study aimed to determine whether ARDS neonate would benefit from surfactant when oxygenation deteriorated on mechanical ventilation and to identify any potential risk factors related to mortality.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

To date, surfactant is not recommended to adult and pediatric ARDS. Meantime, systematic review indicates that surfactant does not demonstrate statistically significant beneficial effects on reducing the mortality and the rate of bronchopulmonary dysplasia(BPD) in term and late preterm infants with meconium aspiration syndrome. Therefore, a reasonable speculation is that preterm infants with ARDS do not benefit from one dose of surfactant. And the speculation can explain why not all preterm infants with respiratory distress can be beneficial from surfactant. In the era of pre-ARDS, the preterm infants fulfilling the definition of ARDS may have been considered as respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) in the first three days after birth.

According to the diagnostic criteria of neonatal ARDS, a key procedure for diagnosis of neonatal ARDS is to exclude the newborn infants with RDS. But no detailed procedures are available to differentiate RDS from ARDS according the guideline of european RDS and definition of neonatal ARDS.

Therefore, there are two aim in the present study. 1. to proposel a new definition of RDS; 2. to assess the beneficial effects of surfactant on neonatal ARDS.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
