Objective: To discuss the temperature difference of infant incubator treatment for the baby to provide important guarantee, to ensure its safe operation.
Methods: Using a completely independent of the infant incubator's temperature monitoring and alarm system of infant incubator temperature and monitoring and alarm system, 20 sets of real-time monitoring and automatic logging data, different brand infant incubator temperature changes compared with infant incubator's own body temperature, and analysis.
Results: 20 sets of different brand infant incubator, 10(50%) in the devices panel display data with a monitoring device differences in measured data, clinical pose a safety hazard.
Conclusions: For clinical use of infant incubator temperature real-time monitor, by the monitoring system for additional auxiliary monitoring and alarm, thereby improve infant incubator clinical application security, reduce the incidence of related medical accidents, improve the quality of medical treatment.

Introduction: Opening the incubator side wall to insert a non-sterile length-measuring device carries the risk of microbial contamination and thermal instability for preterm infants. To reduce this inconvenience, a laser-based length-measuring board is proposed to measure body length from outside the incubator.
Methods: This device has two laser-line-shaped cursors which can be pointed to opposite ends of a segment to be measured.

Unlabelled: The purpose of this study is to compare the effects of two different ways of stopping incubator humidification on episodes of hypothermia, hyperthermia, hyponatraemia, hypernatraemia, or skin injury. The design is a single site, two-armed, parallel, randomised, clinical trial conducted between April 2019 and March 2022. The setting was a quaternary referral and teaching hospital in Queensland, Australia.

Article Synopsis
- An opportunistic pathogen caused an 18-month outbreak in a neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) in Antwerp, Belgium, affecting 61 neonates, with ten confirmed infections resulting in serious conditions, including one fatal case.
- The risk of acquiring the infection was significantly higher in neonates nursing in incubators, highlighted by statistical analysis (OR: 2.99; p < 0.05).
- Whole genome sequencing revealed multiple clusters and the importance of ongoing surveillance and specific infection control measures in NICUs to prevent similar outbreaks in the future.

Introduction: Providing adequate nutrition to preterm infants to achieve postnatal growth similar to intrauterine growth remains challenging due to the unpredictability of individual determinants.
Material And Methods: We used a calculation program for infant incubators to compare the estimated heat balance with the caloric intake and growth rate in Very Low Birth Weight Infants (VLBWI).
Results And Discussion: A group of 32 VLBWI was studied over a period of 14-28 days.

Collecting urine samples in neonates by catheterisation or suprapubic puncture causes trauma, whereas self-adhesive collection bags can damage fragile skin. An alternative method is the collection of samples from urine-soaked cotton wool balls placed in diapers. The aim of this study was to compare the concentration of albumin, creatinine, neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL), and uromodulin between clean-catch urine and samples collected in cotton wool balls in neonates and assess the efficiency of exosome extraction.
