Physiologic studies have demonstrated that, in general, swaddling decreases startling, 301 increases sleep duration, and decreases spontaneous awakenings.310 Swaddling also decreases arousability (ie, increases cortical arousal thresholds) to a nasal pulsatile air - jet
stimulus, especially in infants who are easily arousable when not swaddled but less so in infants who have high arousal thresholds when not swaddled.301 One study found decreased arousability in infants at 3 months
of age who were not usually swaddled and then were swaddled but found no effect on arousability in routinely swaddled infants.301 In contrast, another group
of investigators showed decreased arousal thresholds310 and increases in autonomic (subcortical) responses311 to an
auditory stimulus when swaddled.
