Actual (reported)Change in the Fat mass percentage between 36 and 40 weeks in preterm infants
Body composition as determined by the PEA POD air displacement plathesmography would determine the fat mass percentage and the serial measure of this parameter would determine the changes in the fat mass percentage indicating the quality of growth between 36 and 40 weeks post conceptional age. At 40 weeks corrected age, the fat mass percentage of the premature infants would be compared with ten healthy term infants born to healthy mothers with uncomplicated pregnancies.
Change in the Fat mass percentage between 36 weeks and 40 weeks corrected age
Comparison of the Fat mass percent between preterm infants at 40 weeks and those born at Term gestation.
40 weeks corrected age
Babies born between 23-32 weeks of gestational age will have their body composition determined using PEA POD Infant Body Composition System at 34 weeks, 36 weeks and 40 weeks of corrected age.
Babies born at 34 weeks and 36 weeks of gestational age will have their body composition measured using PEA POD Infant Body Composition System as soon as they are off parenteral nutrition and receiving full enteral nutrition.
Body composition will be measured using PEA POD Infant Body Composition System in this group will be obtained prior to discharge.
The non-invasive device used in this study to measure a baby's body composition is a called a Pea Pod. The Pea Pod is a quick, safe, non-invasive and reliable bedside procedure used to measure changes in infant body composition.
Registry-reported names are shown in full. Names without a link have not yet been matched to a Syfrah profile.
The study group involves premature infants born between 23 to 32 weeks gestation, while babies born at 34 weeks, 36 weeks and ≥37 and ≤ 42 weeks gestational age will serve as control groups.
