About this study

The purpose of the project is to investigate the status of nutrition management of late preterm infants in the member hospitals in the Beijing association of preterm infants, and set up the systemic nutritional management of late preterm infants, Including parenteral nutrition and enteral feeding. And to compare the differences of growth and complications of these infants between groupings applicationg and not applicating the systemic nutritional management of late preterm infants,and to validate its feasibility and validity.

Read the detailed description

The research content of the project includes three parts:

  1. Investigation on nutritional status of late preterm infants.
  2. Setting up systemic nutritional management of late preterm infants
  3. Comparing nutritional and growth status of the late preterm, short-term and long-term complications between the groups applicating and not applicating the systemic nutritional management of late pretern infants.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing new systemic nutrition management protocol in people with Late Premature Infants and Systemic Nutritional Management, run by Peking Union Medical College Hospital.

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 1 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Jan 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

days of postnatal life when enteral nutrition reaching 120kcal/kg/d (time frame: 29 months). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. 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 1 Jan 2016.
