Radiant warmers versus incubators for regulating body temperature in newborn infants

Body temperature instability and respiratory morbidity in the very low birth weight infant: a multiple case, intensive longitudinal study

“…Per the study site standard of care, infants ≤ 750 grams were placed in 75-80% humidity, while infants > 750 grams were placed in 40% humidity during the first 14 days of life. Given smaller infants in this study had warmer body temperatures over time, these results support previous findings that environmental humidity protects very premature infants from heat loss via insensible water loss [46].…”

Interventions to Prevent Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia in Preterm Neonates

“…Of 16 025 titles and abstracts screened, 876 full-text articles were assessed, and 154 systematic reviews evaluating 251 different research questions were included in the final umbrella review (eFigure 1 in the Supplement). The characteristics of the included systematic reviews are shown in eTable 2 in the Supplement.…”

Neonatal warming devices: What can be recommended for low-resource settings when skin-to-skin care is not feasible?

“…Flenady and Woodgate reviewed the effects of radiant warmers vs. incubators on neonatal fluid and electrolyte balance, morbidity and mortality ( 24 ). Eight RCTs comprehending 165 neonates were included in this systematic review.…”
