Infant incubators from the infant incubator manufacturer provide a healthy environment for newborn babies. They are used for premature babies who are still small and weak, and for some sick full-term babies. Infant incubators are used in primary care departments in hospitals or in neonatal intensive care units.

The incubator consists of a transparent cabinet in which the baby is kept in a neutral environment for medical care. Neutral means that the surrounding air has an optimal temperature and humidity and the infant requires minimal energy to maintain a normal body temperature.

The infant incubator manufacturer recommends cleaning the incubator with a mild soap and water solution at least once a week.

After changing the baby, the incubator must be thoroughly cleaned and disinfected. Therefore, all inserts must be removed and washed in hot soapy water with an added antiseptic. The inserts and the cabinet must then be dry and ventilated before they can be reused.

For products that you are unsure about whether they can be disinfected, you can check the instructions provided by the infant incubator manufacturer. The infant incubator must be cleaned and the water in the humidifier tank replaced daily. The air inlet filter should be changed or cleaned according to the user manual or every 3 months.

Why do babies need incubators?

We usually think of incubators (and NICUs in general) as being only for premature babies, but in fact, incubators are also used for the following problems.

1. Breathing problems (caused by prematurity or fluid in the lungs or meconium): babies may need an incubator when they are being treated for breathing problems.

2. Gestational diabetes: babies born to parents with gestational diabetes may need help with thermoregulation and breathing.

3. Infections: if babies are born with an infection or infection, the incubator can help protect them while they recover.

4. Low birth weight: Babies who are not born prematurely but are small (under 5.5 lbs) may have needs similar to those of a premature baby.

5. Surgery or trauma: If a newborn or small baby requires surgery, or has experienced trauma (such as a difficult birth), they may need to recover in an incubator.
