Database for Very Low Birth Weight Newborns
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your baby was born at one of the NICHD Neonatal Research Network hospital centers
- Your baby weighs between 401–1000 grams (about 14–35 ounces) at birth, and/or was born before 29 weeks of pregnancy
- Your baby is enrolled in at least one other NICHD research study or research program
- Medical information from your baby's hospital stay will be recorded in the database

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.
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 builds a shared database about early baby nutrition and health markers. It may help researchers find early “signals” in babies that relate to growth and development, which could guide future care.
This study is testing a program to support low-income mothers of premature babies. It aims to see if extra help with breastfeeding and care can improve your baby's health and your own well-being.
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 collects information about newborns who are small, early, or low weight to better understand their health and how to help them.
