Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and feasibility of weaning from the incubator at a lower post-natal weight at 1600 grams. Our hypothesis is that early weaning from the incubator to a crib/bassinet is safe and may result in a decrease in length of hospital stay while maintaining appropriate growth velocity. Specific outcomes the investigators will evaluate are the length of hospital stay and growth velocity at early weaning.

Conditions

  • Hypothermia, Newborn
  • Body Temperature Changes
  • Newborn Thermal Injury

Interventions

RADIATION

Weaning incubator (heat) at an lower postnatal weight

Infants in the intervention group are weaned in the same manner as the infants in the control arm; however, the wean begins at a lower postnatal weight. Our institutional guidelines for weaning infants from incubator to crib was unchanged for both groups.
