NCT ID NCT06852053

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

Summary

This study tests a smartphone app that predicts when preterm babies will have pauses in breathing (apnea) and slow heart rate (bradycardia). The app then triggers gentle stimulation to prevent these episodes. The study will include 25 preterm infants born before 32 weeks who have already had these episodes. The goal is to reduce the number of times these events happen.
