New study tests wiping bath training for newborns

NCT ID NCT06706804

First seen May 14, 2026 · Last updated May 14, 2026

Summary

This study looked at whether training pregnant women on how to give a wiping bath to their newborns affects early bathing, baby body temperature, and how long it takes for the umbilical cord to fall off. About 64 mothers were split into two groups: one group received the bath training, and the other followed standard hospital care. Researchers then called mothers after birth to collect data on bath timing, temperature, and cord fall.
