These infants often struggle to regulate their own body temperature, making external warming essential. Radiant warmers deliver consistent warmth to help stabilize the baby’s condition immediately after birth and during critical early care.

A temperature sensor is placed on the infant’s skin to continuously monitor body temperature. Based on these readings, the warmer automatically adjusts the heat output to maintain a safe...
