First seen Jan 31, 2026 · Last updated Apr 29, 2026 · Updated 11 times
Summary
This study looks at whether giving extra sodium to premature babies (born before 34 weeks and weighing less than 2500 grams) starting at least a week after birth can improve their growth over the next six weeks. Researchers will track weight and check sodium levels in the blood. The goal is to see if this simple supplement can help these fragile infants catch up in growth.
