Ultrasound probe holding devices for infants

An ultrasound probe holding device configured to attach to a head of an infant for transfontanellar imaging, comprising:

• a head pad configured to be in contact with the head of the infant and comprising a central opening, wherein the head pad is configured to receive an ultrasound probe;
• a pad squeezer, positioned over the head pad, comprising a central opening and configured to cooperate with the head pad to allow an axial guidance of the head pad along a guidance axis substantially perpendicular to a surface tangent to the head of the infant;
• a device holder configured to be attached to the head of the infant and exert a downward force on the pad squeezer, along said guidance axis, towards the head of the infant;
• and
• a repellent arranged on at least one of the head pad and the pad squeezer and configured to exert a repellent force between the pad squeezer and the head pad when the device holder exerts the downward force on the pad squeezer.
