Car seat challenge – the current practice

Sheetal Bhojani, Prakash Desai and Charles Skeoch This article is about car seat challenge testing in high-risk babies prior to discharge from the neonatal unit. It also includes a national survey which involved contacting 30 tertiary units throughout the UK to find out the practice which was being followed. The survey indicates a lack of uniformity, both in the test itself and actions consequent to it.
