About this study

Official title: Is There Any Differences in Motor And Cognitive Development Between Preterm (<37 Weeks) and Early Preterm (<32 Weeks) Infants? Two Years Follow Up Study

Infant born preterm have an increased risk of adverse long-term developmental outcomes.The risk associated with preterm birth increase as gestational age decreases, and vulnerability remains in extremely- very preterm (<32 weeks) and moderate- late preterm (>32 weeks). There are many studies in the literature showed that the prevalence of developmental delay increases with premature birth. However, there is no study in the literature investigates long term follow up motor and cognitive development in subgroups of preterm infants . Hence the aim of this study is to evaluate the differences in motor and cognitive development in moderate-late (>32 weeks) and extremely-very preterm infants.

Read the detailed description

A convenience of infants with premature birth recruiting from Gazi University, Faculty of Health Science, Department of Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation. Babies divide into two groups according to the gestational ages. Babies with gestational ages between 32-36 weeks and 6 days (including the given days) are categorized as moderate-late preterm, while those born before 32 weeks are grouped as extremely and very preterm. Each group contains 20 babies. First, sociodemographic information and histories of babies are obtaining. Ages and contact information of the parents are recording. Prenatal and natal risk factors of the mothers are querying. Gestational ages and height, weight, and head circumferences of babies at birth are recording. Number of pregnancies, live births and abortions, type of delivery, multiple pregnancies for mothers as well as consanguinity between parents are asking.The Alberta Infant Motor Scale is using to evaluate spontaneous motor movements of the baby. It evaluates the baby at prone, supine, sitting, and standing positions. Bayley Scales of Infant and Toddler Development scales screen for cognitive, language, and motor development in babies. All infants will be testing in 3-6-9-12-15-18-24 months of ages.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Premature Baby, run by Gazi University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Sep 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye). Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Motor development assessed with the Alberta Infant Motor Scale (time frame: Each 3 months from beginning to two years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 28 Sep 2018.
