NCT ID NCT07284329
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether a short, parent-designed video can help more families agree to join a larger NICU trial about feeding premature babies. About 787 families will be asked to watch the video or get usual information. The goal is to see if the video makes it easier for parents to understand and decide to participate.
