Occurrence of Preterm Delivery Increase the Demand for Neonatal Thermoregulation Devices

  Thermoregulation is the ability to balance heat production and heat loss to maintain body temperature within a certain normal range. Neonatal thermoregulation devices are used to warm and cool infants during labor. Neonatal thermoregulation has gained much popularity among parents as it allows their child to be kept warm during the critical early weeks of their development, while also remaining cool throughout the process. The biggest contributing factor behind the growth of these neonatal thermoregulation devices is the rise in occurrence of preterm delivery, which leads to low body temperature, immediately after birth, due to a scarcity of stored body fat for the newborn.   The need for continuous heating or cooling of the baby, during this critical period, led to the birth of the neonatal thermoregulation device, a special device designed for keeping the child warm, even during the preterm period.
