Late and Moderate Preterm Babies (LAMBs) Follow up Clinic
Project Description:
The Late and Moderate Preterm Babies (LAMBs) Follow up Clinic at the CHDD works with children who were born between 32 weeks to 36 weeks and 6 days gestation, or 4 to 8 weeks early. We provide developmental assessment and ongoing monitoring. Knowing that these children are at higher risk for developmental differences, our goal is to catch any problems early to help these children grow, learn, and thrive to their highest potential. We perform special development screenings at regular times from 4 months to 2 years (corrected age). Patients can also see a pediatric registered dietician or pediatric audiologist when needed depending on the child's age. A detailed report on findings with recommendations for services, medical evaluations, laboratory studies, or imaging if pertinent which is sent to the primary care provider.
