Soft silicone sensor for premature babies' skin
Part of Skin clinical trials.
This study tests a soft silicone sensor to protect the delicate skin of moderately premature babies while they are monitored in the hospital. If your baby was born a few weeks early and needs hospital care, this sensor might help prevent skin irritation.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your baby was born at 32 to 37 weeks of pregnancy (moderately preterm).
