NCT00000548

Brief Summary

Eligibility Criteria

AgeUp to 1 Year
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsChild (0-17)
Preterm infants who are 500-1250 grams at birth and who require mechanical ventilation at 10 to 21 days of age. Exclusions include congenital heart disease or pulmonary abnormalities, including a patent ductus arteriosus, ventilation solely for apnea, small-for-gestational age, or clinical bleeding.
