Official title

Clinical Significance of N-Terminal Pro-Brain Natriuretic Peptide Levels in Persistent Pulmonary Hypertension

Brief summary

Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.

Babies who are suspected of having persistent pulmonary hypertension (PPHN) will be included in this study. PPHN is a condition in which the blood is restricted from flowing to the lungs in a normal way making it hard for babies to breath and placing strain on the heart. This study will observe whether certain hormones that measure stress (N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide) can help determine how well a baby will do when they have PPHN.
