Summary
This study follows 90 children born very prematurely (before 32 weeks) at ages 2, 5, and 10. A team of experts checks their mental and physical health, sleep, and quality of life. Parents use an app to answer questions, and the team gives recommendations for further care. The goal is to improve follow-up care for preterm children.
