NCT ID NCT03241082
Summary
This study is testing if a simple bedside ultrasound machine can be used to safely track how much fat and muscle a premature baby is gaining each week. Researchers want to see if this scan can give doctors better information about whether the baby's nutrition is working well. The study involves 68 stable premature infants in the NICU who will get weekly scans until they go home.
