Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

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.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Prospective group (>1600 grams)

The prospective group is weaned from incubator to crib at a postnatal weight of \>1600 grams following consent process.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Weaning incubator (heat) at an lower postnatal weight

Intervention Type RADIATION

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.
