About this study

Official title: Neurodevelopmental Assessment and Parents Feelings at 7-8 Years of Age for Prematurely Born Children Involved in the Réseau Périnatal Lorrain Follow-up Program

Thanks to the evolution in knowledge and technical advances in premature newborn intensive care, the survival of very premature infants is now possible. However, prognosis remain sometimes uncertain.

In 2011, the Epipage 2 study showed a significant improvement as compared with the 1997 Epipage1 study with a decrease in mortality and an increase of the survival rate without severe morbidity of 14% for preterm babies born between 25 and 29 weeks and 6% for babies born between 30 and 31 weeks.

However, surviving babies without initial major deficiencies, may later show problems in terms of growth, sensory - motor and/or neuro-psychologic development. This untoward evolution lead to social and family interaction disorders and school difficulties.

In this context, a perinatal care network was created for each Region in France, making it possible to take care of these vulnerable children early on and all along their development. A retrospective study will evaluate 97 pre-term babies born before 33 weeks in 2012 and who are taken care of at Nancy as part of the Lorraine regional network program "Rafael" until they are 7 years old.

The objective is to evaluate objectively the neurocognitive and school abilities of these children at the age of 7.

At 8 years of age, a secondary measure of outcome will be the impact of the eventual neurocognitive consequences on the quality of their family life, on the behavior of the child and the parents' feelings. This way more options to improve the way they are taken care of will be available.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. EDA score (Evaluation Des fonctions cognitives et des Apprentissages)

    Evaluation of learning ability by a standardized score (ranging from 15 in maths to 65 in reading, the higher score being the better)

    Measured: 7 years old

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. RAFAEL follow-up questionnaire reply of parents

    Questionnaire on parents feelings (with 4 levels from no impact to heavy disturbances of the family life)

    Measured: 8 years old

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Neurodevelopmental Abnormality, run by Central Hospital, Nancy, France at 1 site in France.

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

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. 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 is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

EDA score (Evaluation Des fonctions cognitives et des Apprentissages) (time frame: 7 years old). 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 4 Mar 2022.
