AI predicts deadly gut infection in preemies days before it strikes

NCT ID NCT06727877

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study aims to see if an artificial intelligence tool can predict necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) — a severe and often fatal gut infection — in premature babies by analyzing their stool samples. Researchers will collect stool from 1,000 premature babies across several hospitals and use AI to look for early warning signs in the gut bacteria. The goal is to identify high-risk babies days before symptoms appear, so doctors can take steps to prevent the disease.
