First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated Apr 30, 2026 · Updated 28 times
Summary
This study tests whether adding a blood test (presepsin) to standard care can safely reduce unnecessary antibiotics in premature babies born before 32 weeks. Many of these infants receive antibiotics right after birth due to infection risk, but only 1 in 70 actually has an infection. The trial will enroll 900 babies across multiple hospitals to see if the test cuts antibiotic use by at least 30% without missing real infections.
