Main question: What is the lung function of late preterm births compared with children born at term at age 12? Sub-questions: - Which respiratory symptoms in late preterm infants at age 12?
To identify alternative dEMG electrode positions in preterm infants for cardio-respiratory monitoring.
To assess the accuracy and cost-effectiveness of PO screening for CCHD in the Dutch perinatal care system.
To describe the synchronicity of nIPPV respiratory support with spontaneous diaphragm activity and the effect of asynchrony of mechanical inflations and spontaneous breaths on lung volume, mechanical parameters and diaphragm activity in preterm…
The objective of this study is to investigate ABG, CBG and VBG (or parts of the blood gas analysis) in infants.
To investigate the direct effect of caffeine on the respiratory effort of the preterm infant at birth.
Aim of total study:Diagnosing all components of RS in an objective mannerAim of present substudy:Increasing the reliability and decreasing the burden of the method with which glossoptosis can be determined in newborns with RS
The primary objective is to determine if echocardiography in combination with plasma biomarkers can be used as a potential predictor for pulmonary hypertension. The secondary objectives are assessment of a potential correlation between…
The development of a disease specific questionnaire to measure the quality of life in children with BPD at age 4-8, that can be answered by the parents.
The primary objective is to obtain insight in regional differences in lung volume and ventilation distribution during apnea of prematurity and its farmacological treatment. Furthermore, the effect on these parameters due to position changes and non-…
Primary Objective: To identify new markers in BPD, in particular in sphingolipid- and oxylipin profiles in tracheal aspirates.Secondary Objective(s): To predict the development of BPD in preterm infants by the use of metabolomic analysis of the…
To compare the occurrence of significant mask leak when using a nasal mask versus a facemask in preterm infants needing positive pressure ventilation.
To study whether microcirculatory perfusion is improved by ECMO. Perfusion will be studied before & after ECMO start, during ECMO weaning and before & after ECMO stop. To study the precictive value of perfusion and its correlation…
Monitoring the haemodynamic status during lung recruitment.
The first aim of this study is to obtain insight in the physical fitness of ex-preterms. The second aim is to study the influence of the daily activity pattern of the children on physical fitness. The third aim is to study the attitude of parents…
1. Feasibility and reproducibility of transcutaneous (tc) dEMG on premature neonates. - Are the signal quality (heart rate and respiratory rate), bradycardias and apneas similar to the current impedance monitoring2. Can we differentiate between…
Objective: to obtain lung function parameters in infants born preterm at the age of 6 months and to evaluate risk factors for impaired lung function
Primary question:Are dEMG measurements a clinical marker to assess the WOB in preterm born neonates?
Primary objective: Part A: MR cardiopulmonary exercise protocol validation: To validate the protocol of the CMR-ergometer against conventional ergometers in young healthy adultsPart B: CMR exercise study To examine cardiorespiratory structure and…
To determine the effect of MIST on the electrical activity of the diaphragm.
