A technique called “electrical grounding” may reduce preterm infants’ electromagnetic exposure while in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) and improve their health outcomes, research shows.

Equipment in the NICU produces low-frequency electromagnetic fields that can have subtle yet measurable effects on the autonomic nervous system, the system that regulates involuntary body functions. Preterm infants may be especially vulnerable to these effects.
