Treatment of Cranial Molding Deformities in Preterm Infants

The Tortle Midliner is a breathable, knit beanie with two support rolls to help position the infant's head in midline while supine. It can also be worn sidelying or prone. The design includes Velcro adjustments and tabs for nasal cannula and feeding tubes. It is compatible with some ventilation devices, nasal CPAP, X-ray, and bilirubin shades. The beanie is designed to prevent dolichocephaly and provide passive stretch to cervical rotators if head preference has developed. It comes in three sizes and can fit preemies weighing 500 to 2500 g.
