Neonatal incubator, also known as premature incubator and neonatal incubator, is used for the insulation of premature infants. Premature babies are afraid of cold, and it is difficult to adapt to the external environment, so it has no effect on children. It's a fairly small box with air conditioning to provide temperature for children. Because the body function of premature baby BB can't completely contact with the outside world (especially the respiratory tract is easy to be infected), it is safest to put it in an incubator, and the hospital will disinfect it regularly.
Second, how much is the neonatal incubator for one day?
The cost of baby incubators is relatively expensive, and hospitals in different regions and levels may be different. Calculated by the day, it varies from 500- 1000 yuan per day.
The charge standard of living in an incubator varies from place to place and from hospital to hospital, and the drugs, instruments and nursing conditions needed during the period will also be different. Generally, it needs 1 1,000-3,000 yuan. Please consult your local hospital for details.
There are mainly two kinds of babies who need to enter the incubator: one is premature, because their body temperature is low and their ability to regulate body temperature is not perfect, so they need to enter the incubator. For example, a premature baby born less than 25 weeks usually needs to stay in an incubator for 10 weeks. When his birth time reaches 35-36 weeks, his weight reaches 1.8-2.0 kg, and his vital signs are stable. The second category is critically ill infants who need better care and observation.
3. What is the function of the baby incubator?
1, to avoid infection. Premature babies have very low resistance, so they should be placed in an incubator to avoid contact with the outside world. The air is free of dust and bacteria, which plays a role in protecting newborns.
2. Keep warm. Premature babies are very afraid of cold and it is difficult to adapt to the external environment. The temperature in the incubator is reasonably controlled and will be controlled according to the baby's body temperature.
Four. Matters needing attention in using incubator for premature infants
1. Determine the temperature of the incubator according to the birth weight and age of the baby. The lighter the weight, the younger the age and the higher the temperature of the box.
2, warm box should be preheated to the required temperature in advance, and gradually adjust, can't make the box temperature rise and fall sharply in a short time.
3. The action temperature is the real ambient temperature. The so-called "action temperature" refers to the average value (estimated at 40: 60) of the action between the air temperature in the incubator and the inner surface temperature of the cabinet wall (about the middle value between the air temperature in the cabinet and the indoor temperature). For example, when the box temperature is 32 degrees Celsius and the room temperature is 20 degrees Celsius, the box wall temperature is about 26 degrees Celsius, and the operating temperature is 33*40%+26*60%=28.4 degrees Celsius. If the skin temperature of the naked baby is higher than the temperature of the box wall, the baby will lose heat through radiation heat transfer.
4, the relative humidity in the box should be kept between 50 ~ 55%.
5. Before leaving the box, gradually reduce the temperature in the box, pay too much attention to clothes, and add a thermos bottle next to it. If you can keep your temperature at 36.5 degrees Celsius, you can leave the box.
