NCT01789268

Brief Summary

This clinical study will investigate the relationships between sequential respiratory viral infections, patterns of intestinal and respiratory bacterial colonization, and adaptive cellular immune phenotypes which are associated with increased susceptibility to respiratory infections and long term respiratory morbidity in preterm and full term infants. This is a prospective, cohort study, enrolling at a single center via two sites (URMC and URMC-affiliated Highland Hospital and Rochester General Hospital). Enrollment will be accomplished in approximately 15 - 36 months. The study will enroll 280 subjects, 150 pre-term and 130 full-term.

Study Arms (2)

Full-Term Healthy Infants (> /=37 weeks gestational age)

130 male and female term infants born at a gestational age of 37 0/7 to 41 6/7 weeks (Healthy comparator) will be observed for sequential respiratory viral infections, patterns of intestinal and respiratory bacterial colonization, and adaptive cellular immune phenotypes which are associated with increased susceptibility to respiratory infections and long term respiratory morbidity

Device: Respiratory Inductive Plethysmography

Preterm Infants (<36 weeks gestational age)

150 male and female preterm infants born at gestational age 23 0/7 to 35 6/7 weeks will be observed for sequential respiratory viral infections, patterns of intestinal and respiratory bacterial colonization, and adaptive cellular immune phenotypes which are associated with increased susceptibility to respiratory infections and long term respiratory morbidity

Device: Respiratory Inductive Plethysmography

Interventions

Respiratory Inductive Plethysmography (RIP) will be used to document thoracoabdominal motion, relative minute ventilation, and apnea during the minimally invasive respiratory assessments (NIRAs). Both Full and Preterm Infants will undergo a respiratory assessment via RIP prior to and after a bronchodilator (albuterol)
