Gentle touch for newborns: can acupressure ease jaundice?
NCT ID NCT07409194
Summary
This study is testing whether applying gentle pressure to specific points on a baby's body (acupressure) can help lower high bilirubin levels, which cause jaundice. It involves 60 full-term newborns who are already in the hospital for jaundice. Researchers will compare bilirubin levels in babies who receive acupressure to those who do not, to see if it can be a helpful addition to standard care.
