Brain waves could predict when preemies go home
NCT ID NCT02156817
Summary
This study aimed to find better ways to predict how long late preterm babies need to stay in the hospital. Researchers tested 26 babies born a few weeks early, using simple, painless bedside monitors to measure their brain activity, heart rate, and breathing patterns. The goal was to see if these measurements, combined with the baby's gestational age, gave a more accurate prediction of hospital stay than age alone.
