First seen May 16, 2026 · Last updated May 16, 2026
Summary
This study looked at whether using a splint (a small board to keep the arm still) helps IV lines stay in place longer in newborns in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). Researchers compared how long IV lines lasted with and without a splint in 192 babies. The goal was to find out if splints reduce complications and improve care.
