Summary

This trial tests if using medical glue at the spot where a tube is inserted into a baby's vein can help keep the bandage in place longer and prevent the tube from moving. It focuses on newborns in NICU who have delicate skin and tend to move a lot. The glue acts like a strong adhesive, making the bandage stick better and last longer.
