Primary | Standard and Raw Scores of Receptive and Expressive Language on MacArthur-Bates Communicative Development Inventory (CDI): Words and Sentences | Parent questionnaire of receptive and expressive language skills. Will be used to assess the long-term impact of intervention on language outcomes. Standard scores are based on percentiles for age and sex and range from <1 to 99th percentile. Raw scores range from 0 to 680. Both higher standard scores and raw scores indicate better performance. | 18 month follow-up adjusted age for preterm birth | |
Secondary | White matter mean diffusivity | Diffusion MRI metric that measures the average rate of water diffusion. It is used to assess white matter development and structure. | Assessed at near-term equivalent age MRI scan (approx. 36-37 weeks postmenstrual age) or at time of hospital discharge, whichever comes first | |
Secondary | Fractional Anisotropy of white matter tracts of the brain | Diffusion MRI metric that measures the directionality of water diffusion in the brain. It is used to assess white matter development and structure. | Assessed at near-term equivalent age MRI scan (approx. 36-37 weeks postmenstrual age) or at time of hospital discharge, whichever comes first | |
Secondary | White matter mean diffusivity | Diffusion MRI metric that measures the average rate of water diffusion. It is used to assess white matter development and structure | Assessed at 12 month follow-up MRI | |
Secondary | Fractional Anisotropy of white matter tracts of the brain | Diffusion MRI metric that measures the directionality of water diffusion in the brain. It is used to assess white matter development and structure. | Assessed at 12 month follow-up MRI | |
Secondary | Score on MacArthur-Bates Communicative Development Inventories: Words and Gestures | Parent questionnaire of receptive and expressive language skills. Will be used to assess the long-term impact of intervention on language outcomes. Standard scores are based on percentiles for age and sex and range from <1 to 99th percentile. Raw scores range from 0 to 396. Both higher standard scores and raw scores indicate better performance. | 12 month follow-up adjusted for preterm birth | |
Secondary | Number of significant apnea, bradycardia and desaturation events requiring stimulation | Reflects degree of cardiorespiratory stability | measured daily and beginning at start of treatment and until end of treatment, approximately 37-40 weeks PMA | |
Secondary | Time (days) to full oral feed | days until 100 % of nutrition administered orally | measured daily and beginning at start of treatment and until end of treatment, approximately 37-40 weeks PMA | |
Secondary | Average daily weight gain | measured as weight gain per day | measured daily and beginning at start of treatment and until end of treatment, approximately 37-40 weeks PMA |
