Follow-up care for very premature infants born at specialized hospitals
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

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.
This study follows the breathing and lung health of very early preterm babies (born before 29 weeks) for two years. It helps doctors understand and improve long-term respiratory care for these tiny infants.
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.
This study registers newborns who are very small or born very early, to better understand their care and outcomes over time. If you have a newborn that fits the size or gestational age range and the baby is delivered at or transferred to the hospital, you may be eligible.
This study looks at how very small premature babies (born early and weighing less than 4.4 pounds at discharge) do after they go home. It helps doctors understand what support families need.
This trial is part of a regional follow-up program for babies born very early. It looks at how these “extremely preterm” children do as they grow, and can help the care team spot needs earlier at the age-3 visit.
