NCT ID NCT05205356

First seen Feb 03, 2026 · Last updated May 07, 2026 · Updated 18 times

Summary

This study tests a virtual genome center (VIGOR) to help sick newborns in community hospitals get expert genetic care without traveling to specialized centers. It will enroll 750 babies with suspected genetic conditions in the NICU, focusing on low-income and minority families. The goal is to see if this approach improves access, education, and genetic testing for those who often miss out.
