This study tests whether feeding extremely preterm babies only human milk (no formula) affects early health outcomes, including risks that may develop later. It also includes term-born babies for comparison. The study is mainly about feeding and safety, and you would follow the study’s feeding plan.
This study tests whether feeding preterm babies breast milk in a day-night cycle (more in the day, less at night) improves their sleep and development. It may help your baby settle into a healthier rhythm.
This trial tests different ways to give milk feeds to preterm babies who are already eating fully by mouth. The goal is to find the best feeding schedule to help them grow and thrive.
This study compares different ways of feeding very premature babies to see which method helps prevent serious gut problems, reduces the risk of death, and supports brain growth. If your baby is born very early, this research may help find the safest feeding approach.
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 looks at how premature babies grow and handle feeding when they get breast milk or donor milk. It aims to find the best ways to feed preterm infants to help them gain weight and stay healthy.
