An extension of the PREMOD2 trial, the PREMOD2 Follow-Up trial will evaluate the neurodevelopmental outcomes at 22-26 months corrected age of preterm children who received UCM or DCC. This prospective multi-national randomized controlled trial (RCT) is a two-arm parallel non-inferiority design of two alternative approaches of treatment.
Two Year Developmental Follow-up for Premature Infants Receiving Milking or Delayed Cord Clamping: PREMOD2
The PREMOD2 Follow-up trial will examine the difference in early childhood neurodevelopmental outcomes of subjects enrolled in the PREMOD2 umbilical cord milking (UCM) vs. delayed cord clamping (DCC) trial, using standardized neurologic and developmental assessments at 22-26 months corrected age (CA). The corrected age may be extended out to 42 months CA due to Covid-19 pandemic for undetermined period of time.
