See if extra caffeine helps preterm babies with kidney oxygen problems
This study tests whether giving additional caffeine to very premature babies with low kidney oxygen levels can improve kidney health without harming the brain.
-
Lung ultrasound to predict breathing problems in late‑preterm babies
We will test whether early point‑of‑care lung ultrasound can predict which late‑preterm newborns will have breathing problems in the first 48 hours of life.
-
Assessing motor and voice development in infants
This study is trying to see if watching videos of infants can help spot early signs of physical disabilities, especially for those at risk of Cerebral Palsy, by looking at their movement and voice development.
-
Extended Kangaroo Mother Care for Mothers of Low Birthweight Infants
This study tests if staying longer in a special Kangaroo Mother Care ward can help mothers of low birthweight babies feel less depressed after giving birth.
-
Study of Twin Pregnancies and Their Outcomes in China
This study is trying to understand the challenges and outcomes of twin pregnancies in China by following 2000 pregnant women and their babies from pregnancy through early childhood.
-
Using Citicoline to protect the brain in preterm infants
This study is testing if Citicoline can help protect the brains of preterm infants who need breathing support to see if it improves their health outcomes.
