Wearable breast pump study for mothers of premature babies
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study tests if wearable, wireless breast pumps help mothers of premature infants express milk more often and effectively. Participants will be randomly assigned to use either a wearable pump or a standard hospital pump.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are the mother of a baby born at 29 weeks and 6 days of pregnancy or earlier.
- You are still pumping breast milk when your baby is 4 weeks old.
- You are not currently using your own wearable breast pump.

This study tests a small, wireless button-like sensor to monitor vital signs in premature infants in the NICU. It may offer a gentler way to track your baby's health.
This study tests whether a special pumping schedule helps mothers of very premature babies (born before 32 weeks) produce more breast milk. It is designed for babies born weighing less than 1500 grams and who are cared for at our hospital.
This study tests whether using a wearable breast simulator during breastfeeding classes helps pregnant women and their partners feel more supported and confident. It also looks at how fathers can positively influence breastfeeding.
This study tests a better way to help parents pump breast milk more efficiently. It also looks at how the body makes milk. It may help you breastfeed longer and with less hassle.
This study tests if using virtual reality can help mothers of very premature babies feel more relaxed and produce more breast milk. You would use a VR headset while pumping milk.
This study tests whether showing mothers photos, videos, and live images of their baby during milk pumping can improve the milk-feeding process for babies in the NICU. If you can’t breastfeed and you use a smart phone, this could be helpful and give a more personal connection to your baby while you pump.
