Doctors follow preemies fed donor milk to see Long-Term effects

NCT ID NCT01483079

Summary

This study aims to understand how premature babies grow and develop after they go home from the hospital, specifically those who were fed an exclusive human milk diet. Researchers will follow 51 very small premature infants who received donor human milk in the NICU, checking their growth and development at several points up to age 5. The study is observational, meaning it only tracks what happens without giving any new treatments.
