Description

This parent-to-child NMT study will test the effect of an anterior nares, or nasal, microbiota transplant (NMT) on seeding, engraftment, and diversity of the neonatal microbiome. Neonates admitted to the Johns Hopkins Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) will be screened and parents will be approached for enrollment in the study. After consent and baseline screening of parents and neonates, eligible neonates will undergo an NMT.
