Premie steroid study: could a common drug raise blood pressure years later?
NCT ID NCT05451264
First seen Feb 25, 2026 · Last updated May 24, 2026 · Updated 12 times
Summary
This study looks at children born very early who received either hydrocortisone (a steroid) or a placebo shortly after birth. Researchers want to see if the drug affects blood pressure and artery stiffness when the children are 7 to 13 years old. The goal is to understand long-term heart risks, not to treat a disease. 52 children who were part of an earlier trial will have their pulse wave velocity measured.
