The effect of tub bathing on stress, comfort, and physiological parameters in newborns

Puntos clave

• Tub bathing significantly reduces stress in newborns, promoting better physiological outcomes.
• The study observed a decrease in physiological stress markers after bathing, indicating enhanced comfort levels.
• Assessment using physiological parameters measured before and after tub bathing shows notable improvements in comfort and relaxation.
• These findings imply potential shifts in neonatal bathing practices and highlight the importance of comfort in early life.
