Study Purpose: This study looks at if babies can move from an incubator to a crib safely when they weigh 1600 grams. The goal is to see if this helps babies go home sooner and still grow well.
Eligibility: To join, babies must have been born weighing less than 1600 grams. Babies cannot join if they have a slow heart rate needing help, need special light therapy, need a lot of oxygen, or have major birth defects.
- Study Length: The study will track how long babies stay in the hospital and how well they grow after moving to a crib.
- Visits Needed: The study will involve regular check-ins with healthcare providers to monitor baby’s health and growth.
- Risks: Risks might include the baby not staying warm enough or growing slower, but the study aims to make sure these are managed safely.
