Early childhood outcomes in former very low birth weight babies
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study follows children who were part of the ReDiMOM trial to check their development and growth at 2 years old. It helps doctors understand how early care affects long-term health.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You and your baby were part of the ReDiMOM study before.
- Your baby survived to leave the NICU after birth.
- Your baby is not in any other study that affects brain development or body fat.
- The baby's doctor believes your baby is likely to survive.
- You are willing and able to give permission for your baby to be in this follow-up study.

This study follows up on children who were part of the ReDiMOM study to see how they are doing in preschool. It helps researchers understand the long-term effects of the earlier study.
This study follows babies born very early (before 27 weeks of pregnancy) who were treated at specialized neonatal centers. Researchers track their health and development over time to better understand how to care for extremely premature infants.
This study follows mothers who previously joined two specific pregnancy research programs, to understand why some children may be more likely to develop weight and heart-related health problems later. If you were part of those original studies, your information could help researchers look for early predictors and prevention ideas.
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.
This study looks at how very small premature babies (born early and weighing less than 4.4 pounds at discharge) do after they go home. It helps doctors understand what support families need.
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.
