Official title
Effect of Feedings on Caffeine Pharmacokinetics and Metabolism in Premature Infants
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Almost all infants born \<29 weeks gestational age develop apnea of prematurity and are treated with caffeine. Type of diet and disease states may be significant contributors of variability in caffeine metabolism and pharmacokinetics (PK) in this population. This prospective, observational, open-label, opportunistic PK study will compare the population PK of caffeine between infants fed formula and infants fed exclusively breast milk; compare the activities of caffeine metabolizing enzymes between infants fed formula and infants fed exclusively breast milk; and determine the effect of hypoxia, hypotension, and infection on caffeine PK and metabolism in premature infants.
