What this Trial Is About
Researchers are studying how premature babies between 28 and 40 weeks gestational age respond to sounds, focusing on rhythm perception and voice discrimination. The study aims to understand how the brain's cortical network develops and reacts to auditory stimuli during this early stage of life. This research uses advanced brain monitoring techniques to observe these responses in young infants. The study involves different groups of premature neonates categorized by their gestational ages: 28 to 30 weeks, 32 to 34 weeks, and 36 to 40 weeks. Some groups will be exposed to music during their stay in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU), while others will serve as control groups without music exposure. Brain activity will be recorded using High Resolution Electroencephalography (EEG) and High Density Near Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS) during and around the time of auditory stimuli. Participants will undergo brain monitoring for one day, during which their cortical responses before, during, and after auditory stimulation will be measured using EEG and NIRS. The study will collect detailed data to compare brain activity across the different infant groups. This process helps researchers understand how premature infants perceive rhythm and sound as their brains develop. The total participation duration is one day of monitoring for each infant.
