Efficacy of Surfactant and Perinatal Risk Factors in NRDS With Different Gestational Ages
China1,500 participantsStarted 2011-01-01
Plain-language summary
Since exogenous surfactant replacement therapy was first used to prevent neonatal respiratory distress syndrome (NRDS)，it has become the main method of treatment of NRDS. However, in some infants, death is inevitable despite intensive care and surfactant replacement therapy, especially in near-term and term infants. The first goal of our study is to compare the therapeutic effect of pulmonary surfactant of infants at different gestational ages and to investigate whether exogenous surfactant replacement therapy is effective for all newborns with RDS. The second goal of our study is to further analyze the risk factors and causes of RDS in early preterm infants and near term/term infants.

AI-rewrites the medical criteria so a patient or caregiver can understand them. Always confirm with the trial site.
Inclusion Criteria:
Infants with RDS who received surfactant therapy were recruited between January 2011 and December 2016.
Exclusion Criteria:
Infants were excluded if they had any congeni- tal malformation, inherited metabolic abnormality, intrauterine infection, Rh/Rh incompatibility, pneumonia, pulmonary hypertension, meconium aspiration syndrome, or asphyxia.
Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
