New treatment option for Neonatal Hypoglycemia
Official title Pasteurised Donor Human Milk Supplementation for Term Babies
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06993103
What this study is testing
- What it's testing
- PRESENT is a multi-center randomised controlled trial that aims to assess whether access to pasteurized donor human milk as supplementary nutrition in the first five days of life for term infants born to women with diabetes in pregnancy reduces the proportion of infants who are admitted to a neonatal unit for management of hypoglycemia compared with current standard hospital care. The trial will also assess other important outcomes including breastfeeding rates, maternal mental health, and infant cow's milk allergy.
