AEGIS- Neonate Medical Wrap

Couplet-Care Reinvented

More Than 40 years of research demonstrates the powerful benefits of skin-to-skin contact for newborns.
Babies held skin-to-skin are shown to have stable vital signs (breathing, heart rate, temperature, blood
pressure and blood glucose levels.) It has been observed that babies cry less, sleep and feed better. They absorb the nutrients and digest their
food better.

The AEGIS neonate medical wrap, is the only FDA cleared skin-to-skin bonding device for hand-free couplet care.
