An observational study in Cerebral Palsy (CP), Intraventricular Hemorrhage Neonatal and Periventricular Leukomalacia, sponsored by University College Cork. Enrolling by invitation at 1 site in Ireland. Open to participants aged Up to 5 Days. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2026-10-19.
Sponsored by University College Cork · Observational
Cerebral palsy (CP) remains prevalent among very (28-31 weeks) and extremely (\<28 weeks) preterm infants. Prematurity-related brain injuries (high-grade intraventricular haemorrhage, IVH or periventricular leukomalacia, PVL) develop usually during the first few days after birth and are a strong predictor of CP. Development of IVH or PVL have been linked to hemodynamic instability. Artificial intelligence (AI) provides an opportunity to detect patterns from continuous physiological monitoring data that are associated with prematurity-related brain injury. A dataset of extremely preterm infants will be collated from previous INFANT Research Centre study cohorts. A separate but aligned anonymous dataset will be obtained from the University of Graz. Continuous physiological monitoring data will be analyzed with AI algorithms to identify infants with the highest risk of brain injury.
