## Behavioural Experiments for Generalized Anxiety in Adolescents - Pilot Study
- **NCT ID**: NCT06282133
- **Study ID**: 2024-1862

### Study Description
Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD) is a chronic condition characterized by excessive and uncontrollable worry and anxiety. In adolescents, this condition can seriously impact their development, academic performance, and social relationships. In Canada, 3 to 4% of the population (between 0.9% and 2.7% among adolescents) suffers from GAD at any given time in their lives. These young individuals experience a reduced quality of life and are at risk for numerous medical conditions, as well as additional psychological issues. Research suggests that both pharmacological and psychological approaches are effective in treating GAD in the short term. However, psychological treatments appear to offer the greatest long-term benefits. There are a number of effective psychological treatments for GAD, most of which fall under cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT) adapted for this age group.In the 1990s, a group of Canadian researchers developed a CBT protocol for GAD that included four components. Data from six clinical trials in adults suggest that one of the four components is particularly important for treatment success: exposing oneself to uncertainty rather than avoiding it in daily life. In other words, learning to tolerate and manage uncertainty seems to be the key to reducing worry and anxiety.Given this discovery, researchers developed a new treatment that exclusively targets intolerance to uncertainty and then adapted it for adolescents: Behavioural Experiments for Intolerance to Uncertainty in Adolescents (EC-IIA). The aim of the current pilot study is to test the effectiveness of EC-IIA in adolescent individuals. A total of 8 participants with a primary diagnosis of GAD will receive EC-IIA and will be evaluated at 4 different times ranging from pre-treatment to a 6-month follow-up. Conditions will be compared in terms of treatment efficacy and mechanisms. Researchers will also examine predictors of change during the 6 months following treatment. The proposed study will produce data on the effectiveness and mechanisms of a treatment for GAD that is less costly, less complex, and easier to disseminate than currently available treatments.

## Effectiveness and Safety of BiSAAE for Resistant Hypertension.
- **NCT ID**: NCT06282107
- **Study ID**: BiSAAE-RHT
- **Status**: NOT_YET_RECRUITING
- **Start Date**: 2025-01-01

### Study Description
Hypertension is a common problem, affecting \>1.1 billion people worldwide. Unfortunately, fewer than one in five treated patients with hypertension have their blood pressure (BP) under control. The increasing number of people with uncontrolled BP despite the use of three or more antihypertensive agents at optimal or maximally tolerated doses, with one of those agents preferably being a diuretic has been described as the resistant hypertension (RH). Achieving BP control is essential because patients with hypertension who have uncontrolled BP have significantly higher rates of all-cause, cardiovascular, heart disease and cerebrovascular disease mortality compared to normotensive individuals, whereas mortality risk in patients with well-controlled BP does not differ from that in normotensive individuals. There are a number of potential factors that contribute to the suboptimal control of hypertension, including medication non-adherence and prescribing inertia. This highlights the limitations of purely pharmacological approaches for the effective management of hypertension. In fact, the activation of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) and sympatho-adrenomedullary system play a pathogenic role in triggering and sustaining RH. Superselective adrenal arterial embolization (SAAE) is a catheter-based percutaneous transluminal procedure which selectively injects ethanol into adrenal artery to ablate part of the adrenal gland for suppression of excessive aldosterone and catecholamines. Over the last decade, unilateral SAAE has emerged as a potential treatment option for patients with primary aldosteronism. Whether this approach can be extrapolated to patients with RH is unclear. We thus set out to perform a randomized trial to compare the safety and efficacy of bilateral SAAE with antihypertensive medications in treating RH.

### Study Description
This prospective cohort study is designed to characterize the utility of sNfL as a biomarker in clinical practice. This study also aims to understand how access to sNfL measures affects patient and clinician knowledge of their disease status and capture how this may have the potential to influence clinical decision-making. Level of disability, cognitive changes, fatigue, depression, and quality of life to detect clinical and subclinical worsening will be measured. While there is strong evidence in support of sNfL as a potential biomarker, literature regarding the application of sNfL in a real-world clinical practice setting is lacking. Understanding the utility of this test to clinicians and patients as a biomarker of MS disease activity is essential. Additionally, the optimum sampling frequency in clinical practice should be investigated to further elucidate its practicality. Given recent advances in the treatment of MS, there is increasing need for convenient and accessible measures of treatment efficacy.

## Risk Factors for Neuroendocrine Neoplasms
- **NCT ID**: NCT06282016

- **Status**: NOT_YET_RECRUITING
- **Start Date**: 2024-03
- **Completion Date**: 2025-07
- **Lead Sponsor**: Bavarian Cancer Registry
### Study Description
Recent studies show an increase in neuroendocrine neoplasms, especially for the digestive tract. Previous studies suggest various risk factors that were observed for various tumor sites, e.g. a family history of cancer, tobacco and alcohol consumption as well as metabolic disorders including diabetes and obesity. A risk factor that has been little studied to date is depressive disorders, which could increase the risk of neuroendocrine neoplasms either independently or through associated risk behaviors and/or antidepressant medication. The aim of this study is to identify risk factors for neuroendocrine neoplasms based on a case-control study in order to better understand the increase of neuroendocrine neoplasms in recent decades. The study is based on a record linkage of data from the Bavarian Cancer Registry and data from the Bavarian Association of Statutory Health Insurance Accredited Physicians. While the data from the Bavarian Cancer Registry enables the identification of neuroendocrine neoplasms on the basis of histopathological findings and thus is the basis for selecting cases, the claims data from the Bavarian Association of Statutory Health Insurance Accredited Physicians provides the source population as well data on diagnoses and thus enables the investigation of risk factors.

- **Status**: RECRUITING
- **Start Date**: 2023-10-10
- **Completion Date**: 2024-09-30
- **Lead Sponsor**: Masa Kontic
### Study Description
Anesthetic effects, surgery, and invasive mechanical intubation can impair respiratory function during general anesthesia. The risk factors for postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) include the type of surgery and duration, ventilation-perfusion discrepancy, and the presence of pain. Mitigating PPCs under anesthesia is a goal, but effective strategies are yet to be defined. Conventional ventilation (CV) procedure uses more inspired oxygen during pre-oxygenation and anesthesia maintenance. The protective lung ventilation (PV) procedure, on the other hand, includes high positive end-expiratory pressure, lung recruitment maneuver, oxygen saturation levels above 94%, lower inspired oxygen levels, and continuous positive airway pressure before the tube is removed. In this study, 56 consecutive patients undergoing abdominal surgery were randomly assigned, with 30 in the CV and 23 in the PV group, while 3 were lost during the follow-up. We concluded that the implementation of protective lung ventilation strategies has the potential to reduce the occurrence of PPCs, recommending these strategies be adopted as the standard practice in general anesthesia.

## Platelet-rich Plasma With Topical Retinoids Versus Topical Retinoids Alone in Acne Vulgaris

- **Status**: RECRUITING
- **Start Date**: 2024-01-01
- **Completion Date**: 2024-05
- **Lead Sponsor**: Assiut University
### Study Description
Acne vulgaris is the most common skin disease in adolescents and young adults. Adult or post-adolescent acne occurs in 12-14% of this population.It is a chronic, inflammatory disease of the pilosebaceous unit .The clinical features of acne include seborrhoea, non-inflammatory lesions (open and closed comedones), inflammatory lesions (papules and pustules), and various degrees of scarring.Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is prepared by simple centrifugation of whole blood to concentrate platelets and simultaneously remove red blood cells. The resultant supernatant is the PRP that contains various growth factors, including platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), transforming growth factor (TGF), fibroblast growth factor (FGF), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), and hepatocyte growth factor (HGF).These growth factors are involved in the healing of soft tissue and can regulate cellular processes such as chemotaxis, angiogenesis, mitogenesis, differentiation, and metabolism .Topical retinoids are used in the treatment of both noninflammatory and inflammatory acne.Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved three topical retinoids: adapalene, tazarotene, and tretinoin. These agents help normalize follicular keratinization and decrease keratinocyte cohesiveness, thereby reducing follicular occlusion and comedon formation .Topical retinoids also compete with factors involved in the acne inflammation response, enhance penetration of other topical acne medications, and accelerate the resolution of acne-induced post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.Updates from the Global Alliance on Improving Outcomes in Acne consider topical retinoids as first-line therapy, individually or in combination with benzoyl peroxide. However, the common side effects of skin irritation and discomfort may impede adherence to long-term therapy.For patients with acne, combination therapy with a topical retinoid and platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has not yet been tested.PRP with topical retinoids will be evaluated and campared with topical retinoids alone in acne tretment.

### Study Description
The goal of this observational study is to evaluate whether a urinary biomarker (Xpert® Bladder Cancer Detection Test) can be used as a selection tool to decide which patients that should undergo cystoscopy in haematuria work-up or in other indications where bladder tumor is suspected. Hereby, the investigators will investigate in which patients where cystoscopy can be omitted, particularly in areas with limited access to urological service. With these more selected investigations, patients with bladder tumors will potentially be selected to earlier diagnosis compared to the current non-selected investigations with the inherent logistic and economical challenges. With this strategy, the investigators aim at improving the current poor prognosis for bladder cancer patients in Greenland.

### Study Description
For several years, the incidence of sexually transmitted infections (STIs) has been rising sharply, while that of HIV has stagnated. This is due to the decline in condom use since the late 1990s, despite the fact that condom are considered the only effective way to prevent STIs.In France, 40% of STIs concern young people aged 15 to 25. The national public health strategy aims to stem the circulation of HIV and eliminate STIs as a major public health problem by 2030. To achieve this, several measures have been implemented: reimbursement of male condoms on prescription (2018), 100% free contraception and prevention in sexual health consultation (2021), and more recently, free, non-prescription access to male condoms in pharmacies (end 2022).

## An Intervention Study Using HMOs to Improve IBS Symptoms

- **Study ID**: REC: 23/SW/0042
- **Status**: RECRUITING
- **Start Date**: 2024-02-20

### Study Description
There is now strong evidence implicating the human gut microbiota in many gastrointestinal diseases, including irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Importantly, this enteric population is susceptible to dietary intervention and represents an exciting target for the prevention and treatment of gut mediated disorders. This study will investigate microbial components and activities associated with the gut microbiome, using a global systems biology approach to explore the capacity of a human milk carbohydrate intervention in modulating this microbial community to target IBS, with the primary objective of improving IBS symptoms.IBS is a highly prevalent gastrointestinal (GI) disorder with significant negative impact on quality of life of patients and high healthcare costs. Although prognosis of IBS is benign, it is a disorder that poses a considerable burden on the individual sufferer and society. Patients typically present with chronic abdominal pain and an altered bowel habit, frequently accompanied by bloating and distension. Often, IBS will afflict sufferers for life, with flares of activity followed by periods of remission. Incidence commonly peaks in the third and fourth decades of life.IBS is suggested to be a disorder of gut-brain interaction, and alterations of the microbiota-host interactions at the mucosal border may cause symptoms such as those previously mentioned. Therefore, microbiota-targeted interventions may benefit some people with IBS by beneficially modulating the gut microbiome. Several studies have confirmed that prebiotics, such as galactooligosaccharides (GOS), are able to successfully stimulate gut bifidobacteria and alleviate symptoms in IBS. Prebiotics are defined as "a substrate that is selectively utilised by host microorganisms conferring a health benefit" \[8\]. These studies suggest that prebiotics may have potential as therapeutic agents in IBS.Breastmilk is known to play a crucial role in the development of infants, providing key nutrients and immunological compounds important for initial protection against pathogens \[9\]. Among these compounds, human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) represent the third most important component of breastmilk after lipids and lactose. HMOs have also been investigated for potential health benefits in adults, including their potential role as prebiotics for improved gut microbiota modulation.Studies looking specifically at HMO interventions in humans with IBS are sparse. These include a phase II, parallel, RCT in 58 IBS volunteers by Iribarren et al. and an open-label trial with 245 IBS participants from 17 sites across USA by Palsson et al.. None have been sufficiently powered to a degree which could influence clinical practice, but crucially tolerability and safety profiles of HMOs investigated, to date, have been consistently high.Using the global systems biology approach not yet applied to this research question, a pre-competitive approach to selecting a candidate HMO, and a crossover feasibility trial design, the investigators hope to forge a new direction in establishing the merits of HMO use in IBS.This study will look specifically at patients with all IBS subtypes, an area where there is a real therapeutic gap and clinical need for safe, effective therapy to improve quality of life. Participants will be randomly allocated to be given either the HMO or a placebo, with neither the patient nor the researchers knowing which they are receiving (randomised and double blind design). They will take this HMO or placebo for 28 days (randomly distributed), and then stop taking it in a 'washout' period of 28 days, allowing the gut microbiota to return to baseline. Then, the participants will take the other intervention (placebo or prebiotic, whichever they did not take in the first half of the study) for 28 days, then have a further washout period of 14 days. The study will then be over.With this proposal, the aim is to explore how HMOs affect the gut microbiota and whether they can do so in a manner that positively influences patients with IBS. The investigators also hope to develop molecular profiling as part of a research toolkit for gut microbiome-based HMO supplement studies.

There are many predictors that may influence the development of corneal graft rejection after penetrating keratoplasty. In our study investigators analysed the results of keratoplasty and the risk factors for graft rejection.Investigators analysed data from 493 patients who underwent penetrating keratoplasty between 2011 and 2019. Keratoplasty outcomes were followed up at subsequent clinic visits until December 2021. Then, 93 medical records were selected (taking into account the completeness of the medical records) and divided into two groups based on the primary diagnosis that was an indication for keratoplasty: high-risk and low-risk patients. Investigators then estimated the survival time (clear graft) of the corneal graft using Kaplan-Meier statistical survival analysis. Investigators also investigated the factors that influence corneal graft opacity.

### Study Description
Shoulder arthroplasty is becoming increasingly common, due to ageing of the population. Historically, surgeons have been reluctant to use a shoulder replacement in younger patients. During the last decades however, there was an improvement of surgical techniques and implants which resulted in the fact that these procedures are nowadays more frequently used in younger patients. Combined with the increasing life expectancy and the increased age of retirement, both elderly and younger patients hope to continue their jobs after prosthetic replacement.Recent literature shows that the majority patients is able to resume their work following shoulder arthroplasty.This study aims to analyze the RTW percentage in a Belgian cohort of patients with a shoulder replacement. This study hopes to identify factors that might influence the RTW.

### Study Description
Project RESTART (Resisting STigma And Revaluating your Thoughts) is a theory-informed, 4-week automated text message intervention to address self-stigma in people who use drugs. The intervention delivers two daily messages to participants for four weeks (56 messages total). Messages are designed to address four components of Stigma Resistance Theory: Not believing stigma/catching and challenging stigmatizing thoughts; empowering oneself through learning about substance use and one's own recovery; maintaining one's recovery and proving stigma wrong; and developing a meaningful identity and purpose apart from one's substance use.This study is a single-group pilot trial to determine whether the intervention is feasible and acceptable to participants. All participants will receive the intervention. The primary outcomes are changes in stigma resistance and self-stigma from baseline to 4-week follow-up using self-report. Implementation and process outcomes will be measured to inform future intervention refinement.

### Study Description
Dupuytren disease is a medical condition characterized by the painless formation of nodules in the palm of the hand. Cords are formed on the palmar fascia, a connective tissue sheet in the palm of the hand. This fascia is seen as the vestigial remnant of the palmaris longus tendon. The PLM attaches to the fascia palmaris. A muscle that not everyone has and can therefore be clearly missed. This raises the question of whether the presence of the musculus palmaris longus has any association with the development, recurrence and/or progression of DD and contractures. To investigate a potential predisposition, this study intend to assess the prevalence of the PLM in a group of individuals affected by DD and compare it with a control group (age matched, no signs of DD) without the condition.
### Conditions
- Dupuytren's Disease
### Study Design
- **Type**: INTERVENTIONAL
- **Allocation**: NON_RANDOMIZED
- **Intervention Model**: PARALLEL
- **Primary Purpose**: DIAGNOSTIC
### Interventions
- Non-invasive tests to determine the presence or absence of the palmaris longus tendon in both hands.

## Probing the Role of Feature Dimension Maps in Visual Cognition: Impact of Task Demands (Expt 2.1)
- **NCT ID**: NCT06281457
- **Study ID**: 5-24-0030: 2.1
- **Status**: RECRUITING
- **Start Date**: 2024-04
- **Completion Date**: 2024-05
- **Lead Sponsor**: University of California, Santa Barbara
### Study Description
How does one know what to look at in a scene? Imagine a "Where's Waldo" game - it's challenging to find Waldo because there are many 'salient' locations in the picture, each vying for one's attention. One can only attend to a small location on the picture at a given moment, so to find Waldo, one needs to direct their attention to different locations. One prominent theory about how one accomplishes this claims that important locations are identified based on distinct feature types (for example, motion or color), with locations most unique compared to the background most likely to be attended. An important component of this theory is that individual feature dimensions (again, color or motion) are computed within their own 'feature maps', which are thought to be implemented in specific brain regions. However, whether and how specific brain regions contribute to these feature maps remains unknown.The goal of this study is to determine how brain regions that respond strongly to different feature types (color and motion) and which encode spatial locations of visual stimuli transform 'feature dimension maps' based on stimulus properties as a function of task instructions. The investigators hypothesize that feature-selective brain regions act as neural feature dimension maps, and thus encode representations of relevant location(s) based on their preferred feature dimension, such that the stimulus representation in the most relevant feature map is up-regulated to support adaptive behavior. The investigators will scan healthy human participants using functional MRI (fMRI) in a repeated-measures design while they view visual stimuli made relevant based on a cued feature dimension (e.g., color or motion). The investigators will employ state-of-the-art multivariate analysis techniques that allow them to reconstruct an 'image' of the stimulus representation encoded by each brain region to dissect how neural tissue identifies salient locations. Each participant will perform a challenging discrimination task based on the cued feature (report motion direction or color of stimulus dots) of a stimulus presented in the periphery, which are identical across trial types. Across trials the investigators will manipulate the attended feature value (color, motion, or fixation point). This manipulation will help the investigators fully understand these critical relevance computations in the healthy human visual system.

## Effectiveness of Radial Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy in Patients With Knee Osteoarthritis
- **NCT ID**: NCT06281444
- **Study ID**: i07-453-23
- **Status**: RECRUITING
- **Start Date**: 2024-01-01
- **Completion Date**: 2025-07-31
- **Lead Sponsor**: Ankara University
### Study Description
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative joint disease characterized by unsuccessful repair of joint damage resulting from stresses in any of the synovial joint tissues. Symptoms include pain (initially only after movement), joint stiffness, limitation of joint movement, feeling of insecurity in the joint, and difficulty walking. The diagnosis of knee osteoarthritis can be easily made with a detailed history and a comprehensive physical examination. Radiographic examinations are used to support clinical findings and exclude other possible pathologies. The main purpose of treating knee osteoarthritis is to reduce pain and make daily life easier. Since there is no standard treatment method, the patient's treatment must be individualized by taking into account age, comorbidity, severity of the clinical picture, patient preferences and cost of treatment. Conservative treatment includes pharmacological and non-pharmacological treatment, and the optimal treatment should be applied as a combination of these two methods. Patient education, lifestyle modification, exercise, different physical therapy modalities (TENS, Interferential current, ESWT...), acupuncture are some non-pharmacological methods.Extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT), which is considered within the scope of conservative treatment, started in the seventies with the practice of breaking ureteric stones and has become one of the physical therapy modalities used in the treatment of various musculoskeletal diseases. Considering the historical development of ESWT, it has started to be used as a therapeutic modality in the treatment of knee osteoarthritis in recent years. The process, which started with animal experiments, continued with human studies, and evidence is presented that ESWT reduces knee pain and contributes to functionality. It is noteworthy that there are few studies and their short follow-up periods. In the light of these studies, it was planned to investigate the effectiveness of ESWT treatment, which will be applied together with exercise, on pain, functionality and walking distance in individuals diagnosed with knee osteoarthritis, in comparison with the control group receiving sham ESWT.

### Study Description
In normal pregnancies, blood histamine concentration remains within normal values; however, the serum histaminolytic activity is increased. Histamine is mainly produced by mast cells, platelets, basophils, neurons and enterochromatin cells, where it is stored and released when required. Reduced DAO activities have been found in high-risk pregnancies. Lower DAO activity has been associated to miscarriage, fetal demise, preeclampsia, low birthweight and preterm birth. The placenta is very rich in DAO activity and is the principal source of increased histaminolytic activity in normal pregnancies.First-trimester screening for preeclampsia (PE) is a routine screening which is performed in the first trimester. Women with a positive result are at a greater risk of PE but also other pregnancy complications such as stillbirth, preterm birth and low birthweight. These cases are prescribed aspirin until term. This intervention has demonstrated to significantly reduce the risk of PE and other complications. Unfortunately, aspirin does not avoid all cases with adverse outcomes, indicating that additional mechanisms may be involved in the development of such pregnancy complications, such as DAO decreased activity.

- **Lead Sponsor**: Diakonhjemmet Hospital
### Study Description
In response to the high prevalence of synovitis in hand osteoarthritis (OA) and its association with pain, there\&#39;s a compelling rationale for investigating the efficacy of MTX in managing inflammatory erosive hand OA. Recent guidelines highlight the need for large, well-designed trials to assess the effectiveness of MTX. A recent trial (METHODS study) showed promising pain reduction with MTX, but due to pandemic-related protocol changes, the duration of the study was limited to six months. The ongoing MERINO trial randomizes participants to MTX or placebo for one year. After completing the MERINO trial, several participants asked for MTX open label. In the subsequent MERINO:2 study, participants completing the trial will be invited to a structured follow-up after one year, including electronic questionnaires and hand radiographs, providing valuable long-term data on the effects of MTX in hand OA. Together, these trials aim to fill gaps in understanding the long-term impact of MTX in hand OA, particularly on structural progression.

### Study Description
Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection is the most common viral infection of the reproductive tract. Up to 80%of the sexually active females and men will be infected with HPV at some point in their lives and some may be repeatedly infected. The main burden of HPV-related disease is due to cervical cancer. Since cervical screening only detects precancerous and cancerous changes after they have occurred, HPV vaccination is primary prevention. People with HIV infection, even when effectively treated with antiretroviral therapy (ARV),are at higher risk of acquiring infection with multiple HPV types and are also known to be predisposed to a higher risk of HPV infection and subsequent CIN lesions. Vaccination of this high-risk group with HPV vaccine is highly beneficial. SIIPL's qHPV vaccine CERVAVAC®, India's first indigenous qHPV vaccine has received marketing authorization in India. The current study is a Phase 3b study to evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of two- and three-dose schedules of SIIPL qHPV vaccine in women living with HIV (WLWH) aged 15-25years.

## Radiofrequency Fields in Neonatology: Exposure and Impact on the Nervous System
- **NCT ID**: NCT06281093
- **Study ID**: PI2022_843_0089
- **Status**: RECRUITING
- **Start Date**: 2024-02-20
- **Completion Date**: 2026-10
- **Lead Sponsor**: Centre Hospitalier Universitaire, Amiens
### Study Description
Previously, the investigators showed that preterm newborns are exposed chronically to very low radiofrequency levels in average while hospitalized in NICUs. Most of the infants were nevertheless frequently exposed to transient values above 1 V/m. The investigators also showed that an increase in RF exposure is likely to alter the activity of some neurophysiological functions and their regulatory systems in preterm newborns. The investigators hypothesize that above results are extremely specific to the location of the previous study and may be different in other NICU environments.This study will aim at quantifying RF levels to which preterm newborns are exposed during their stay in several NICUs spread across the French territory, and assessing its impact on the central and peripheral nervous systems. The first step of this study will be to quantify the precise, continuous and individual levels of daily RF exposure to which each recruited neonate is subjected during his stay in the different NICUs from birth to 1 week postnatal life. Infants' clinical data (medical history, nutrition, morphology...) will also be continually monitored. At 1 week postnatal life, the investigators will investigate cerebral activity (EEG) and autonomic nervous system activity (ECG, heart rate variability). The impact of RF will be evaluated by analyses of the relationship between exposure levels and the various parameters extracted from the neurophysiological investigation phase.

## Physiologically Based Cord Clamping To Improve Neonatal Outcomes In Moderate And Late Preterm Newborns

- **Status**: RECRUITING
- **Start Date**: 2024-02-19
- **Completion Date**: 2026-07
- **Lead Sponsor**: Queen Fabiola Children's University Hospital
### Study Description
Before birth, the baby's lungs are filled with fluid and babies do not use the lungs to breathe, as the oxygen comes from the placenta. As delivery approaches, the lungs begin to absorb the fluid. After vaginal delivery, the umbilical cord is clamped and cut after a delay that allows some of the blood in the umbilical cord and placenta to flow back into the baby. Meanwhile, as the baby breathes for the first time, the lungs fill with air and more fluid is pushed out. However, it does not always work out that way.A baby born prematurely may have breathing problems because of extra fluid staying in the lungs related to the immaturity of the lung structure. Thus, the baby must breathe quicker and harder to get enough oxygen enter into the lungs. The newborn is separated from the mother to provide emergency respiratory support. Although the baby is usually getting better within one or two days, the treatment requires close monitoring, breathing help, and nutritional help as the baby is too tired to suck and swallow milk. Sometimes, the baby cannot recover well and show greater trouble breathing needing intensive care. This further separates the mother and her baby. A possible mean to help the baby to adapt better after a premature birth while staying close to the mother is to delay cord clamping when efficient breathing is established, either spontaneously or after receiving breathing help at birth. In this study, we intend to test this procedure in moderate or late preterm infants and see whether the technique helps the baby to better adapt after birth and to better initiate a deep bond with the mother.
