A Bradycardia-Based Stress Calculator for the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit: A Multisystem Approach

Early life stress in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) can predispose premature infants to adverse health outcomes and neurodevelopment delays. Hands-on-care and procedural pain might induce apneas, hypoxic events, and sleep-wake disturbances, which can ultimately impact maturation, but a data...
