Summary
This study tested a small device that sends mild electrical pulses to the ear (tAN therapy) in 52 newborns with opioid withdrawal. The goal was to see if it could reduce the number of days the babies needed morphine and shorten their hospital stay. The device was used alongside standard care, and some babies received a sham (inactive) treatment for comparison.
