Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Music has been consistently shown to reduce stress and increase weight gain in premature infants. The mechanism of this presumed improved metabolic efficiency is unknown. We aim to test the hypothesis that music by Mozart reduces energy expenditure in growing healthy preterm infants.
