Brief Summary

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

Premature infants are at high risk for variations in blood pressure and oxygenation during the first few days of life. The immaturity of the premature brain may further predispose these infants to death or the development of neurologic problems. The relationship between unstable blood pressure and oxygen levels and brain injury has not been well elucidated.

This study investigates the utility of near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS), a non-invasive oxygen-measuring device, to identify preterm infants at highest risk for brain injury or death.

Study Groups

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

Preterm infants monitored with NIRS

All infants enrolled in the study will be monitored with cerebral near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS monitoring) to measure cerebral oxygenation levels in the first 96 hours of life. Mean arterial blood pressure will simultaneously be monitored.

NIRS monitoring

Intervention Type DEVICE

All enrolled infants will undergo NIRS monitoring of cerebral oxygenation in addition to monitoring of continuous arterial blood pressure.
