Recruiting studies in Ohio
- NCT05685745Recruiting
Hospital data collection for very early baby care
This study collects information from hospitals about babies born extremely early (22 to 23 weeks of pregnancy). It helps researchers understand what care happens and what outcomes occur, which can guide improvements in future care.
Columbus, OhioAges birth–1 year - NCT05264779Recruiting
Decision help tool for very early delivery planning
This study tests a decision-support tool (a structured way to guide conversations) for parents facing a high risk of delivering very early (about 22–26 weeks). It may help you and your baby’s care team make clearer, more aligned choices about neonatal (newborn) treatment.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT06063122Recruiting
Device to help preterm babies tell speech sounds apart
This study tests a new device that plays special sounds to help preterm babies learn to tell different speech sounds apart. It is for babies born between 32 and 35 weeks of pregnancy to see if the device can improve their hearing and brain development.
Chagrin Falls, OhioAges 7 months–8 months - NCT06965530Recruiting
Food support for pregnant patients with Medicaid
This trial provides medically tailored groceries to pregnant people who are food insecure. It tests whether better nutrition during pregnancy can improve health for you and your baby.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18–55 - NCT00063063Recruiting
Database for Very Low Birth Weight Newborns
This is a research database that collects health information from newborns born very early or very small at specialized hospital centers. Your baby's data helps researchers understand how to better care for premature and low-birth-weight infants.
Cincinnati, OhioAges Up to 2 weeks - NCT06396078RecruitingPhase 4
Antibiotics for Early Water Breaking Before Delivery
This study tests whether giving antibiotics to pregnant people with early water breaking (PPROM) before delivery improves outcomes. It aims to prevent infections and protect both parent and baby while waiting for delivery.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT00009633Recruiting
Follow-up care for very premature infants born at specialized hospitals
This study follows babies born very early (before 27 weeks of pregnancy) who were treated at specialized neonatal centers. Researchers track their health and development over time to better understand how to care for extremely premature infants.

What taking part in a premature birth study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.
