Can a Half-Dose steroid protect preemie brains as well as the full dose?
NCT ID NCT04021485
Summary
This study is following children born very early (before 32 weeks) to see if their brain development at age 5 is just as good when their mothers received a half-dose of a common steroid (betamethasone) before birth, compared to the standard full dose. The steroid is given to mothers at risk of early delivery to help the baby's lungs mature. Researchers want to know if using less medicine is just as safe for the child's long-term thinking and learning skills.
