NIRS monitoring in premature babies with brain fluid problems

Boston, MassachusettsAges birth–1 year - 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.

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.
Cambridge, MassachusettsAges 1.5 years–2.2 years - 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.
Cambridge, MassachusettsAges Up to 2 weeks - NCT06536296Recruiting
Music therapy for preterm brain development
This study tests if specially designed music can help premature babies' brains grow stronger and healthier. It is for very preterm infants born between 24 and 30 weeks of pregnancy.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 6 months–7 months - NCT07101640RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2

What taking part in a premature infant 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.

Common questions
- Are there premature infant clinical trials in Massachusetts?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 6 recruiting premature infant studies with a site in Massachusetts, each rewritten in plain language so you can see what it's testing and who it's for.
- How do I find out if I qualify for a premature infant study in Massachusetts?
- Each study lists its eligibility rules — age, diagnosis, prior treatments. On every trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Do I have to live in Massachusetts to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in Massachusetts, but eligibility is about your health, not your address — some people travel to take part, and a few studies reimburse travel. The study team can tell you what's required.
