Skin patch could help protect newborn brains during cooling treatment
NCT ID NCT04603547
Summary
This study is testing whether a non-invasive skin sensor can reliably monitor carbon dioxide (CO2) levels in newborns with brain injury who are receiving therapeutic cooling. The goal is to see if this continuous monitoring is practical and accurate compared to blood tests. Researchers hope that better CO2 tracking could help avoid levels that are too low, which may worsen brain injury, and potentially improve long-term outcomes for these vulnerable infants.
