Gentle wrapping may soothe sick Newborns' pain, study finds

This study looks at whether swaddling (wrapping snugly) or nesting (creating a cozy boundary) can lower pain and stress in newborns who need breathing support. About 100 babies born after 35 weeks will be watched for heart rate, oxygen levels, and stress signs. A painless saliva test will also check stress hormones. The goal is to find simple, drug-free ways to keep these fragile infants more comfortable.
