Reduction of head flattening in preterm infants / D. J. MARSDEN in Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 22-4 (August 1980)

Public ISBD [article]  inDevelopmental Medicine & Child Neurology > 22-4 (August 1980) . - p.507-509 Titre : Reduction of head flattening in preterm infants Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : D. J. MARSDEN, Auteur Année de publication : 1980 Article en page(s) : p.507-509 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Twins born after 30 weeks gestation were studied. One twin was reared with a water pillow for head support for 36 days and retained a more rounded head shape, comparable to the normal configuration at birth. The other twin had standard neonatal care and developed the scaphocephalic head typical of most ex-preterm infants. It is suggested that water pillows constitute a simple method of reducing skull deformation in preterm infants.
