It also found that playing soothing music to the newborns can help slow their heart rates, the Daily Mail has said.
The study, which was carried out by the New York-Presbyterian Phyllis and David Komansky Centre for Children's Health, found that by slowing a baby's heart rate and improving their sleeping and eating patterns, helps them to gain weight and allow them to leave hospital earlier.
It also discovered that different types of music have different effects on the infants, with lullabies sung by a parent found to influence a baby's cardiac and respiratory function while melodies have a positive effect upon a preterm baby's feeding.
In a previous study, ABC News reported that researchers at Florida State University, found that babies who receive music therapy leave hospital earlier than those who don't.
Another previous study, by researchers at Beth Israel Medical Centre in New York, suggested that when babies are played lullabies chosen by their parents, this promotes bonding between the child and its parents. In conjunction with this, studies have also revealed that when music is played in a neonatal intensive care unit the parents' levels of stress also appears to decrease significantly.
Popularity of the music therapy treatment is increasing as it is thought the soothing sounds can mimic the sounds a baby hears in the womb, and subsequently offering comfort to babies often too sick to be held.
