Brief summary

Preterm neonates less than 32 weeks of gestational age admitted at birth to the Neonatal Medicine unit will be included after informing the parents. Abdominal skin and peripheral (arm or leg) and incubator air temperatures and relative humidity will be obtained from data recorded by the incubator without using any additional transducer compared to standard care. Pulse and respiratory rate, blood pressure, the incidence of apnoeas and sleep organization will also be recorded from routine monitoring. A case report form and a wide-angle video recording of the infant's room will allow description of the type of care, determine the duration of care and the impact on incubator function. Data will be recorded for the first 7 days of life of the preterm neonate.
