Summary
This study will test whether doing an early abdominal ultrasound helps doctors diagnose serious stomach problems in premature newborns. The researchers will look for specific ultrasound signs in 100 premature babies with symptoms like bloating, bleeding, or vomiting. The goal is to see if ultrasound can provide useful information alongside standard exams and lab tests.

What this could lead to
