Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| As a result, it is expected that in preterm infants the weight gain is related to the hydrotherapy technique, measured by scales. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| As a secondary endpoint, it is expected to correlate weight gain with physiological variables (heart rate, respiratory rate, peripheral oxygen saturation), through a multi-parameter monitor and physical evaluation.;As a secondary outcome, we expect to correlate weight gain with behavioral variables, using the Brazelton Adapted Scale. | — |
