The Non stretch, loop fastening NEO-prene, used in my various products, for our sick & premature neonates, allows more effective & secure CPAP (continuous positive airway pressure) therapy. It also decreases the risks of pressure injury like skin pressure areas, burns, nasal septal damage & deformation of the preterm head (“Prem Head”). It helps prevent loss of CPAP air pressure (“pop off”), as well as decrease retinal damage of the eyes, & inaccurate oxygen saturation readings leading to poor oxygen management in neonates. It also contributes to developmental care of the neonate by limiting damaging loud noises & bright lights, which have detrimental neurological consequences for neonatal development.
