## Indications for use
Infant radiant warmers provide infrared heat in a controlled manner to neonates who are unable to thermo-regulate based on their own physiology. Infant radiant warmers may be used to facilitate the neonate's transition to the external environment or to provide a controlled open environment. An optional integrated SPO 2 monitoring feature may be used for continuous noninvasive monitoring of functional oxygen saturation of arterial hemoglobin (Sp0z) and pulse rate (measured by an SPOZ sensor). An optional integrated resuscitation system may be used to provide the basic equipment required for pulmonary resuscitation of infants. Pulmonary resuscitation includes practices necessary to establish a clear airway and provide oxygen or air/oxygen mixtures and/or manual ventilation to the infant.
