Ear stimulation breakthrough helps babies avoid feeding tubes

NCT ID NCT07049952

Summary

This trial is testing a new therapy called BabyStrong that pairs gentle ear stimulation with bottle feeding to help infants who struggle to learn how to eat. The goal is to help these babies feed fully by mouth so they can go home sooner and avoid needing feeding tubes. Researchers will compare the device to a sham treatment in 88 infants across multiple hospitals to see if it improves feeding skills and brain connections.
