Description
Abishek J R and co-authors design in 2026 an age-fit stimulation protocol for preterm infants in Indian intensive care units. Early stimulation aids brain growth, yet most protocols come from rich research settings. Local guidance on timing by birth age, carer roles, and culture was missing.
Trial proof, therapist practice, and mother experience feed the design in sequence. A review maps trial methods by age band, and talks with sixteen therapists add feasibility views. Twelve mothers share readiness and home care customs that shape the plan. A fixed merge rule joins the three strands into one protocol.
