Abstract
Appropriate positioning maintains preterm infants in symmetrical posture and is important for stress reduction and impacting neurological or musculoskeletal development. This review was performed to elucidate which positioning methods emerge as the most beneficial. Several databases were searched using search terms for neonatal intensive care, preterm, infant positioning, and stress. Three hundred and fifty-eight articles were initially retrieved and nine were retained after applying inclusion criteria. Included studies varied widely in their methods and outcome measures. Prone positioning was supported by three studies, sidelying was found to reduce stress more than supine positioning, and supine positioning emerged as the least effective for controlling stress behaviours. Limited evidence supports the efficacy of alternative positioning techniques that contain infants in supine positions. Future studies should continue to investigate the impact of positioning on stress in order to optimize developmental outcomes for preterm infants.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
