Study Summary

The purpose of this descriptive study is to provide information on the feasibility of using the cranial cup, a new positioning device, in a small sample of prematurely born infants with elongated head shapes as a result of laying on their abdomens, during the convalescent phase of their hospitalizations.

Primary Outcome

Nurses will complete daily logs indicating the number of desaturation events (oxygen saturation of \< 90 percent for infant corrected to full term or \< 87 percent for a premature infant for \> 10 seconds) and emesis events (regurgitation of breast milk or formula) during cranial cup device use. The cup's designated use is for at least 12 hours per day. Study duration is at least 14 days and can continue until the infant is discharged. Comparisons will be made for the number of desaturation even
