Clothing (including diapers) and hair can have a significant impact on the volume and mass measurements performed during a PEA POD test. Because of this, infants should be tested nude, with their hair flattened against their head using baby oil or an LMI approved cap. If this protocol is not followed, the results provided by the PEA POD will be inaccurate.
