Clinical Applications
Our focus is on three clinical problems experienced by thousands of newborns every day. Placed in a hospital bassinet or incubator, our gentle stimulation helps improve the natural processes of breathing control and oxygenation.
Neonatal Opioid-Withdrawal Syndrome (NOWS)
Exposed to opioids before birth, newborns experience painful withdrawal symptoms. Our therapy reduces the need for morphine treatments.
Apnea of Prematurity
Due to an immature brain, preterm newborns sometimes stop breathing. Our stimulation therapy helps reduce the number of apneic episodes.
Intermittent Hypoxemia
Underdeveloped lungs in early preterm newborns can result in low levels of oxygenation. Our noninvasive stimulation helps improve oxygenation.
