Over the last 6 months, we observed a significantly growing demand for the BabyFix Cocoon across europe. One of the main reasons for this is the fact that examining newborns in their natural sleep is becoming the new standard of care to avoid the risks associated with anaesthesia.
 
The BabyFix Cocoon is the only existing solution explicitly developed for scanning babies from 2-5 kg in natural sleep.

 
Feed and Sleep Method:
In the "Feed and Sleep Method," newborns are fed before undergoing radiological examinations to help them fall asleep naturally. The Babyfix Cocoon plays a crucial role in this method as it provides a sleep-promoting position for newborns and optimal conditions for radiological exams.
 
Case Study:
Please find below a case study from the University Children's Hospital Basel (UKBB). It offers valuable insights into its daily application.

Together we can help to ensure that more and more newborns benefit from the advantages of the Babyfix Cocoon and reduce their exposure to risks related to anesthesia.
