New study aims to prevent brain damage in newborns by decoding heart rate patterns

NCT ID NCT07333599

First seen Jan 12, 2026 · Last updated Apr 28, 2026 · Updated 18 times

Summary

This study looks back at the medical records of 400 full-term newborns who had very low cord blood pH (below 7.00) at birth, a sign of severe oxygen shortage. Researchers want to find patterns in fetal heart rate recordings that can help doctors spot when a baby is struggling earlier and more accurately. The goal is to reduce delays in care and unnecessary C-sections, ultimately preventing serious brain injuries like cerebral palsy.
