Recovery study: blood markers in newborns after intestine surgery
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Digestive system, Genetic & congenital clinical trials.
This study looks at blood markers in newborns after major stomach or intestine surgery. It aims to understand recovery and could help improve care for babies with similar conditions.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial tests whether a specialized fetal operation is safe and practical for babies with a serious form of gastroschisis (bowel outside the belly) and swollen bowel. You may be considered if the pregnancy is otherwise free of major related problems and the family is ready for follow-up after birth.
This study follows pregnancies and newborn outcomes for babies diagnosed with gastroschisis (an opening in the baby’s belly present before birth). It aims to understand what delivery and early care lead to better outcomes for these babies.
This study tests whether starting feedings earlier than usual helps babies born with gastroschisis recover better. It aims to find a safer and more effective feeding plan for these newborns.
This study looks at whether giving an amino-acid supplement called arginine to newborns after major bowel surgery can improve the baby’s immune response. It may help doctors understand how to support recovery after conditions like necrotizing enterocolitis or certain birth defects.
This study looks at newborns (up to 28 days old) who have urgent stomach or intestinal problems needing immediate treatment. Researchers want to understand what types of emergencies happen most often and how babies fare after treatment.
This study looks at newborns who had intestinal surgery at a specific hospital, using existing medical records. Researchers will focus on whether starting food by mouth early was safe or not, which could help improve care for future newborns.
