Study Summary

Preterm newborns typically must be thermally regulated. In the United States, isolettes (incubators) are used to help them maintain their temperature. Traditionally, the temperature support (i.e. the temperature of the incubator) is decreased slowly according to NICU protocol until the baby is able to maintain its temperature in an open crib, without regard to the status of its feedings. This study will attempt to determine if there is a difference in length of stay, weight gain, and calories needed to gain appropriate weight between a group of newborns whose isolette temperatures are decreased in an aggressive strategy (isolette temperatures are decreased based only on baby's body temperature), and a group of newborns whose isolette temperatures are decreased in a conservative strategy (isolette temperatures are decreased to a minimum temperature and then kept steady until their feeds are at caloric goal and they are taking at least half of their feeds by mouth).
