Scientific titleNeonatal ventilation with INhaled Nitric Oxide versus Ventilatory support withOut inhaled nitric oxide for severe respiratory failure: a randomised controlled trial
Study acronymThe INNOVO Trial
Study objectivesAlthough inhaled nitric oxide (INO) may be a promising treatment for newborn infants with severe respiratory failure, the results from three previous small trials were inconclusive. The objectives are:
1. To assess the clinical effectiveness and cost effectiveness of a policy of adding or not adding inhaled nitric oxide (INO) to the ventilator gases of neonates with severe respiratory failure
2. To conduct relevant sub-studies
Ethics approval(s)Not provided at time of registration
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studiedRespiratory disease
InterventionNitric oxide/control
Intervention typeDrug
Pharmaceutical study type(s)
PhaseNot Applicable
Drug / device / biological / vaccine name(s)Inhaled nitric oxide (INO)
Primary outcome measure1. To conduct relevant sub-studies
2. Death
3. Severe disability at 1 year of age (corrected)
4. Chronic lung disease, defined as being on supplemental oxygen at the expected date of delivery (preterm stratum) and at 28 days post delivery ('mature stratum')
5. Length of time on supplemental oxygen
6. Costs
