Follow-up Visit of High Risk Infants
The NICHD Neonatal Research Network's Follow-Up study is a multi-center cohort in which surviving extremely low birth-weight infants born in participating network centers receive neurodevelopmental, neurosensory and functional assessments at 22-26 months corrected age (Infants born prior to July 1, 2012 were seen at 18-22 months corrected age). Data regarding pregnancy and neonatal outcome are collected prospectively. The goal is to identify potential maternal and neonatal risk factors that may affect infant neurodevelopment.
Stanford is currently accepting patients for this trial.
Stanford Investigator(s):
Eligibility
- Infants inborn at NRN centers
- <27 weeks gestational age

are larger than 1,000 grams and/or older than 27 weeks may be included in the FU
Study.
Note: These inclusion criteria were changed as of 1/1/2008. Prior to this date, infants
