Understanding how premature infants process sounds

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This study investigates how premature neonates, specifically those between 25 and 36 weeks gestational age, respond to auditory stimuli using advanced techniques like High Resolution Electroencephalography (EEG) and High Density Near Infrared Spectroscopy (fNIRS). By analyzing the cortical network responses, the research aims to uncover the developmental status and functionality of neuronal networks in these infants. The findings could provide insights into the neurodevelopmental risks associated with prematurity and the establishment of appropriate responses to auditory events.
