Summary

This study follows 480 children born to mothers who received either nifedipine or a placebo after early rupture of membranes (22-33 weeks). Researchers will assess the children at age 6 for cerebral palsy, coordination, language, behavior, and thinking skills using parent questionnaires and online tests. The goal is to see if nifedipine exposure before birth has any long-term effects on neurodevelopment.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
nifedipine
What this could lead to
If successful, this could show whether nifedipine is safe for children's long-term brain development after preterm birth.
What could go wrong
This is an observational follow-up, not a new treatment test. Results depend on parent reports and may not prove cause and effect.
