Normal blood clotting values in premature infants

Official title: Normal Hemostasis Values in Premature Infants

Run by University Hospital, Strasbourg, France · NCT07349251 · Data updated 2026-11-12

We will look at past lab tests to see what normal blood clotting values are from birth until 18 months in babies born before 37 weeks.

Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Ideal candidates are infants born before 37 weeks and aged 18 months or younger whose hemostasis samples were sent to the CHU Strasbourg Hematology Laboratory and who do not have known congenital bleeding disorders or liver failure.

Probably not a fit

Infants with known congenital hemostasis disorders, existing coagulopathy, hepatocellular insufficiency, or incomplete laboratory records are unlikely to benefit from this reference-range project.

What this trial studies

This retrospective observational study compiles hemostasis test results from infants born before 37 weeks whose samples were sent to the Hematology Laboratory at Strasbourg University Hospital. Selected coagulation parameters will be collected from birth through 18 months and analyzed by age to define expected ranges. Infants with incomplete data, congenital bleeding disorders, coagulopathy, or hepatocellular insufficiency will be excluded. Results will be compared where possible with reference values from full-term infants to identify differences.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, the results could give clinicians clearer age-specific clotting reference ranges for preterm infants and help avoid misdiagnosis or unnecessary treatment.

How similar studies have gone: Previous research has described neonatal coagulation patterns, but large retrospective cohorts specifically defining age-related hemostasis ranges in preterm infants through 18 months are limited.
