      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Double blinded, Placebo: Used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Treatment, Other design features: Due to the low dose of acetazolamide used in this study, there will be no side effects and in all studies performed in the years before furosemide and acetazolamide have been used together and in very high doses up to 100 mg per day, Randomization description: Using Random number generator computer ( ver.1.1) randomization program, a list of random numbers in the range 1 to 132 will be generated randomly. Random numbers from 1 to 66 will be assigned to the drug and from 67 to 132 to the placebo. Because the order of distribution of these numbers is random, so the assignment of treatment to people who enter the study in order will be done randomly. Finally, this list will be presented to the pharmacist and the order of medicines will be done by the pharmacist in the package, which is the same in terms of shape, appearance, etc. Finally, the therapist will give the pills to the patients using the arrangement of the pills by the drugs, Blinding description: Because it is a double-blind clinical trial, a randomized list is provided to the pharmacist to produce a sequence that fits the drug packages so that it is identical in appearance and so on. The packages will then be given to the therapist. Patients will be assigned to treatment according to the order of pills from 1 to 132, which includes 66 packs of acetazolamide tablets and 66 packs of placebo pills, which has been done by the pharmacist according to the random list. After the pharmacist prepares the drugs, he will deliver them to the researcher and the researcher will provide them to the therapist. In this case, the therapist does not know which patient is receiving which treatment after randomization.</study_design>

      <hc_freetext>Intracranial hemorrhage in preterm newborns.</hc_freetext>
      <i_freetext>Intervention 1: Intervention group: They receive acetazolamide at a dose of 1-3 mg per kg per oral every three hours until complete recovery from intraventricular bleeding. Intervention 2: Control group: Newborns with the inclusion criteria will receive a placebo with the same appearance as acetazolamide. Due to the low dose and low weight of infants, the main drug is colorless in dilution and distilled water is used as a placebo.</i_freetext>
