Nurtured Development

The path home for a fragile newborn starts in the perfectly balanced, stable microclimate of our incubator. Where the appropriate temperature, humidity, oxygen, sound, and light level work together to wrap the baby in a safe zone of minimal stress. At Dräger, our focus is to advance the science of thermoregulation, because we understand the critical role it plays as an early warning signal of stress and potentially serious complications for the baby. Ultimately, we help you create a microclimate for each baby that is individualized, nurturing, and stable. It’s what managing stress is all about.

For neonates, the immature lungs are perhaps the most fragile. This requires the gentlest ventilation whereby each breath must be monitored for the slightest change. Which is why, at Dräger, our focus has always been on providing highly sensitive ventilation that keeps pace with a baby’s changing needs, from the very first breath onwards.

The ability to both easily screen and effectively treat is crucial to the newborn health. That focus has led to the development of jaundice screening and therapeutic solutions that are non-invasive, simple-to-use, and highly effective. Our approach decreases heal sticks and minimizes stress on the baby. The Jaundice Meter JM-103 gives you an instant way to screen for jaundice. All it takes is a gentle touch of the device on the infant’s sternum or fore-head to know instantly whether jaundice is present.
