What the trial is, and whether it could suit you
This is a prospective, open-label, single-arm, multicenter Phase IV clinical study to evaluate the safety of INOmax for the treatment of hypoxic respiratory failure with pulmonary hypertension in newborns (โฅ 34 weeks gestational age). To evaluate the safety of INOmax combined with ventilatory support in the treatment of neonatal (โฅ 34 weeks gestational age) hypoxic respiratory failure with pulmonary hypertension.
