Nurse Unexpectedly Saves A Baby By Placing Her Next To Twin Sister

The Co-bed Effect Has Revolutionized How Hospitals Run

The positive effect can be seen everywhere. For instance, the University of Massachusetts Memorial, went on to co-bed at least 100 sets of multiple birth preemies. Observing this practice over a period of five years, the hospital staff there has not found a single case of twin-to-twin infection. Clinical studies have later confirmed through intense research that twins, in fact, benefit from being in close contact with one another.
