Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| 1)Comparison of the efficacy of Embrace Care in maintaining normothermia (36.5°C to 37.5°C) in LBW neonates (1500 to 2000 grams) against SOC in maintaining normothermia in the community setting. 2)Continued safety of the participants 3)Weight gain velocity across the two study armsTimepoint: 30 DAYS OF STUDY TREATMENT PHASE (DAY 1 TO DAY 30) | — |
