Summary

This study tests a new, non-invasive light-based device that measures oxygen levels in the brain's small blood vessels of newborns immediately after birth. Researchers want to see if this method can give doctors a clearer picture of brain health during the critical transition from womb to world. About 40 full-term and premature babies will be monitored to gather initial data, with the hope of improving care for those at risk of brain injury.
