End Tidal Carbon Monoxide (ETCO): - A Tool to Aid Identification of Neonatal Hemolysis
Study Purpose
The purpose of this study is to evaluate if adding a noninvasive testing of End Tidal Carbon Monoxide with a FDA approved device will help improve management of jaundice in the Neonates by reducing the number of lab draws, Coombs tests and optimizing the number of phototherapy hours in Neonates who need it. Eligible subjects will be Term and healthy late preterm newborns born at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center and admitted to well baby nursery from November 2020 onwards. The primary procedure of measuring an End-Tidal Carbon monoxide in a Newborn is going to be with a soft cannula applied to the Newborn's nose for a few minutes. The whole procedure will take about 15+ 5 minutes. Subject participation will last approximately 6 months and all subjects will be followed up with one phone call at about 2-4 weeks of age. Adding ETCO testing to current standard of care might reduce the number of lab draws in a newborn and potentially reduce costs by optimizing the number of phototherapy hours in a Newborn who needs it. Cedars- Sinai Medical Center will not be billing the patients for the End-Tidal Carbon Monoxide measurement for this study.

Study Type
An interventional clinical study is where participants are assigned to receive one or more interventions (or no intervention) so that researchers can evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or health-related outcomes. An observational clinical study is where participants identified as belonging to study groups are assessed for biomedical or health outcomes. Searching Both is inclusive of interventional and observational studies. |

Trial Details
Trial ID:
This trial id was obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov, a service of the U.S. National Institutes of Health, providing information on publicly and privately supported clinical studies of human participants with locations in all 50 States and in 196 countries. |
NCT05475223 |
Phase
Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans. Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data. Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs. Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use. |
