Pulmonary vascular disease and cardiac performance in extreme preterm infants: A prospective cross-sectional study
NCT03641209
In the present trial, early, intravenous paracetamol is compared to placebo in extremely premature or low birth weight infants in order to evaluate the effect on ductal closure.
NCT05824377
To evaluate the duration to reach full feeds by comparing continuous gavage feeds versus bolus feeds in preterm infants who are on non-invasive respiratory support (RAM cannula - short binasal prongs).
NCT03261609
The purpose of the HAPI project is to study the overall health of preterm infants once they reach adulthood. The investigators would like to compare the health of adults born preterm with that of adults born full-term. They would also like to find the early signs, or biomarkers, of chronic diseases such as high blood pressure, diabetes, osteoporosis, and chronic lung diseases. Such biomarkers would allow for early diagnosis and prevention. Furthermore, the investigators would like to understand why some people born preterm are more likely to develop chronic disease. They believe that inflammation and oxidative stress may play a part. Oxidative stress is present when the body is not able to defend itself against oxygen-derived products that can damage our cells. To carry out this study, the investigators will examine 6 aspects of the health: (1) heart and circulation, (2) kidneys, (3) lungs, (4) metabolism - sugars and fats in the blood, (5) bones, and (6) eyes.
