OptiSTART Trial Summary

This trial will see if higher oxygen levels during resuscitation of preterm babies increases survival without long-term complications. 700 babies will be randomly assigned to two different oxygen levels and the study aims to determine which level is optimal.

Who is the study for?
The OptiSTART trial is for premature infants born between 22-30 weeks of gestation. It's not suitable for those with certain heart diseases, if oxygen saturation can't be measured within 3 minutes after birth, or if parents do not wish resuscitation.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
This study tests two different oxygen saturation targets during the resuscitation of preterm babies: Sat75 (higher target) and Sat50 (current standard). The goal is to see which leads to better survival rates without lung disease or neurodevelopmental issues by age two.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects are related to the levels of oxygen received. Too much oxygen might lead to conditions like retinopathy (eye damage) or affect lung development, while too little could result in inadequate tissue oxygenation.

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Sat75Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
FiO2 will be titrated every 30 seconds by 0.2-0.3 to achieve target SpO2 that approximates the 75th percentile SpO2 observed in healthy term newborns. Percentiles are roughly based on Dawson reference curves of healthy term infants after birth.
Group II: Sat50Active Control1 Intervention
FiO2 will be titrated every 30 seconds by 0.1-0.2 to achieve NRP recommended target SpO2 which approximates the 50th percentile SpO2 observed in healthy term newborns. Percentiles are roughly based on Dawson reference curves of healthy term infants after birth.
