Short-Term Effects of Hydrokinesiotherapy in Hospitalized Preterm Newborns

Figure 3

Comparison of salivary cortisol measurements between preterm newborns before (pre-HKT PN) and after (post-HKT PN) hydrokinesiotherapy and term newborns (TN). Significant differences were observed in salivary cortisol levels between the pre-HKT PN and post-HKT PN groups . Significant differences were also found in salivary cortisol levels between the pre-HKT PN and TN groups and between the post-HKT PN and TN groups .
