NCT ID NCT06724601
First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 05, 2026 · Updated 30 times
Summary
This study looked at how lung volume changes when stable preterm infants are placed in car seats. Researchers used a special imaging technique to measure breathing in 51 babies born before 37 weeks. The goal was to understand if the semi-upright car seat position affects lung aeration, helping improve safe transport for these vulnerable infants.
