Amniotic fluid test may predict kidney outcomes in unborn babies
NCT ID NCT06912490
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study aims to confirm if a test using a sample of amniotic fluid can accurately predict how well a baby's kidneys will work after birth. Researchers will analyze 78 fetuses with kidney and urinary tract malformations from hospitals across France. The goal is to see if this test can help doctors plan better care for these babies before they are born.
