What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study looks at whether an EEG (a brain wave test) can help doctors know when it's safe to stop giving caffeine to premature babies without their breathing problems coming back. About 100 preterm infants will have an EEG when their caffeine is planned to stop. The goal is to see if brain maturity predicts which babies can safely stop caffeine.

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Infants born before 28 weeks of gestation with a birth weight of 1250 grams or less, who received prophylactic caffeine therapy. 2. Infants with a birth weight greater than 1250 grams and a gestational age below 32 weeks, who required invasive mechanical ventilation and were started on prophylactic caffeine therapy. 3. Infants born at less than 37 weeks of gestation, admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit, and treated with caffeine for apnea of prematurity. 4. Infants whose parents or legal guardians provided informed consent. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Infants who did not receive caffeine therapy, 2. Infants for whom an EEG could not be performed, 3.
