Study of Babies Born at 22 Weeks Gestation
This study follows babies born at exactly 22 weeks of pregnancy (very early, before typical viability) who were cared for in a hospital's neonatal intensive care unit. Researchers want to understand outcomes and care practices for these extremely premature infants.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your baby was born between 22 weeks 0 days and 22 weeks 6 days of pregnancy
- Your baby was born in or admitted to a neonatal intensive care unit (NICU—a hospital's special care unit for newborns) within the first 72 hours of life
- A neonatal medical team was present at birth or your baby was transferred to a NICU very quickly
- Your baby does not have a known major birth defect or congenital condition
