AI Growth Tracking for Newborns in Hospital Care
This study tests a new computer program that estimates a newborn's length and weight from photos and videos. Researchers want to improve how quickly and accurately hospitals can track growth in babies staying in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) or special care nursery (SCN).
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your baby is currently admitted to a NICU or special care nursery and is between birth and 6 months old
- Your baby was born at 28 weeks of pregnancy or later
- Your baby is not on a breathing tube (endotracheal or nasotracheal intubation)
- Your baby does not have a condition affecting leg structure or head shape that would make standard measurements difficult (such as leg abnormalities, joint problems, or excess fluid in the brain)
- You are willing to have your baby photographed and video-recorded for the study
- You agree to let researchers see your baby's blood test results (hemoglobin levels) from routine hospital care, and you can sign a written consent form

This study uses artificial intelligence to watch and analyze videos of newborns in the hospital nursery or NICU to help doctors spot neurological problems early. The goal is to see if this video AI tool can safely and accurately help care for newborns during their hospital stay.
This trial uses artificial intelligence to review newborn medical records, including scans and clinical notes, to help predict and improve health outcomes. Participation may help refine AI tools for neonatal care.
This study uses a safe, non-invasive ultrasound technique to measure brain activity in newborn babies. It aims to understand brain development and connectivity in preterm infants, infants with birth-related oxygen deprivation, growth-restricted babies, siblings of children with autism, and healthy full-term babies.
This trial tests whether an artificial intelligence (AI) tool can more accurately estimate a baby's weight using ultrasound, compared to standard methods. If you're about to give birth, this study may help improve how doctors predict your baby's size.
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 looks at premature babies to find out which ones are likely to have trouble growing while in the hospital. The goal is to help doctors identify and support babies who may need extra nutrition or care.
