Identification of Clostridium Butyricum and Clostridium Neonatal in the Digestive Microbiota of Premature Infants Before 34 Weeks and Developing or Not Ulcerative Necrotizing Enterocolitis (NEC) During Hospitalization

NCT04584320 · Status: ACTIVE_NOT_RECRUITING · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 40

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The study investigators hypothesize that Clostridium butyricum and Clostridium neonatal will be more frequently found in the stool of preterm infants with ulcerative necrotizing enterocolitis compared to healthy matched control infants. Systematic daily samples should show that the kinetics of colonization precedes the onset of the pathology. Finally, the systematic ecological survey at the time of infection could help understand the mode of acquisition and transmission of these bacteria.
