Effect of Body Weight on Temperature Control and Energy Expenditure in Preterm Infants
The purpose of this study was to compare resting energy expenditure (REE) in premature infants of different body weights during weaning from the incubator. We hypothesized that premature infants would respond to weaning from an incubator with an increase in REE, and that the increment would be large...
