Summary

This study looks at whether swaddling (wrapping snugly) or nesting (creating a cozy boundary) can lower pain and stress in newborns who need breathing help. About 100 babies born after 35 weeks will be observed. Researchers will check heart rate, oxygen levels, and use a special pain scale, plus test a tiny bit of saliva for stress hormones. The goal is to find simple, drug-free ways to make intensive care more comfortable for these fragile infants.
