Nichd Neonatal Research Network Extremely Low Birth Weight (Elbw) Prematurity Neurodevelopmental Outcome Follow Up Studies

ClinConnect Summary

The Follow-up Visit of High Risk Infants trial is studying how certain factors during pregnancy and after birth affect the development of infants who were born extremely early or with very low birth weight. In this study, babies who were born before 27 weeks of pregnancy and are now between 18 and 26 months old will receive important assessments to check their growth and development. This includes looking at their brain development, senses, and overall abilities. The goal is to gather information that can help us understand what influences their development and how we can improve care for these vulnerable infants.

To be eligible for this study, infants must have been born at one of the participating centers and must be under 27 weeks gestational age. Additionally, they need to be part of other related studies by the NICHD Neonatal Research Network. If chosen to participate, families can expect to bring their child in for assessments that will help researchers gather valuable information about their child’s development. This study is currently recruiting participants, and it aims to provide insights that could lead to better outcomes for high-risk infants in the future.
