Summary
PLATIPUS is an adaptive platform trial aimed at improving the health of infants born preterm (before 37 weeks' gestation). PLATIPUS will compare how different treatments and care provided to pregnant women and people at risk of preterm birth and infants born preterm affect infant health. The main questions PLATIPUS aims to answer are: 1. What effect/s do different treatments/care provided to pregnant women and people at risk of preterm birth have on the health of their infants? (Pregnancy domains) 2. What effect/s do different treatments/care given to infants born preterm have on their health ? (Neonatal domains). This registration record relates to the PLATIPUS Core (or 'master') protocol which provides guidance for the overall running of the trial. Additional appendices will outline the aims, questions, treatments, and activities for each separate research question (domain). Each Domain-Specific Appendix will be registered separately on ClinicalTrials.gov and will link to this record.
