Brief Summary

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

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of renal ultrasound to check kidney perfusion in premature and/or very low birth weight babies.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of 3D (3 dimensional)renal ultrasound to check kidney perfusion (to see if the kidney is receiving enough blood flow to function as it should) in premature and/or very low birth weight babies.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Renal perfusion in Neonates

Ultrasound scanning with power Doppler is used to determine the fractional blood volume of the kidneys.

Group Type OTHER

3D Ultrasound Imaging

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

Ultrasound scanning with power Doppler is used to determine the fractional blood volume of the kidneys in pre-mature and/or very low birth weight babies. This is a measure of perfusion and an indication of how well the kidneys are working.
