Amniotic fluid and the preterm baby's gut
Part of Genetic & congenital, Infections, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study looks at the fluid around your baby (amniotic fluid) and how it might affect your baby's gut health if they are born early. It may help doctors understand how to better care for preterm infants.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

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.
This study tests whether a treatment during labor called amnioinfusion (putting sterile fluid into the uterus) can help lower the risk of brain injury in babies when the mother has chorioamnionitis, an infection of the amniotic sac. The goal is to see if this simple procedure improves newborn outcomes and reduces the chances of long-term developmental problems.
This study looks at how the gut works in premature babies to better understand digestion and health. It may help improve care for newborns born early.
This study looks at the fluid around the baby (amniotic fluid) in women with a short cervix or with early breaking of the water (premature rupture of membranes). The goal is to better understand these conditions and possibly improve care.
This study looks at differences in the gut bacteria of babies born early (preterm) compared with babies born full-term. It may help researchers understand how early birth affects early health and gut development.
This trial tests whether adding fluid into the womb (amnioinfusion) during labor can protect a baby's lungs and health after being exposed to thick meconium (baby's first poop). It may help reduce breathing problems and improve long-term outcomes.
