Alberta BLOOM study for very premature newborns
Part of Genetic & congenital, Immune system & allergy, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study follows babies born very early and their parents to learn about early health and development. It may help doctors better understand what babies need after a premature birth.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Baby is less than 8 days old or has already joined one related BLOOM study before
- Baby was born at 36 weeks 6 days or earlier (very premature)
- Parent/guardian is at least 16 years old and can sign consent
- Parent/guardian can speak and understand English and agrees to follow study visits
- If baby is enrolled within 8 days of birth, you live in the Calgary area (Calgary Metropolitan Region)

This study builds a personalized computer model that uses earlier breathing/oxygen information from preterm infants to predict possible health or development outcomes by preschool age. It may help families and doctors better estimate risks and plan support, using information already collected in a previous study.
This study follows pregnant people and their babies from the first few months of pregnancy through at least one year after birth. It aims to learn how health and development turn out, especially for mothers who can keep coming to the same clinic for follow-up.
This study follows first-time mothers and their babies from pregnancy to early childhood, using digital tools to support a healthy start. It aims to learn how to improve health and well-being for both mom and baby.
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 trial tests a new treatment to help very premature babies (born at 22 to nearly 29 weeks) who still need a breathing machine and extra oxygen at 1–2 weeks old. The goal is to see if it can improve their lung health and reduce the need for breathing support.
This study collects health information and biological samples from very premature babies to understand what affects their development. It may help researchers find ways to improve care and outcomes for infants like yours.
