This is especially true for low-resource settings, where the majority of children are born at home and do not have the resources to provide their newborn with the necessary care immediately after birth.\n\n== Detailed description of the solution ==\n\nThe infant radiant warmer is a mobile, battery powered device that addresses severe heat loss suffered by some infants by allowing the infant’s bed to be uniformly heated. This is done by infrared radiation (IR) from a quartz heater that is beamed by a parabolic reflector uniformly over an infant’s bed. The device has a sensitive thermostat that does not require calibration to use it. The control panel can sense the infant’s temperature quickly through the use of a highly sensitive thermistor probe.\n\n== Designed by ==\n\n* Designed by: Phoenix Total Maternal and Infant Care\n* Manufacturer (if different):\n* Manufacturer location: India\n\n== When and where it was tested/implemented ==\n\nIndia\n\n== Funding Source ==\n\nPhoenix Total Maternal and Infant Care\n\n== References ==\n\n=== Peer-reviewed publication ===\n\n=== Other internally generated reports ===\n\nInfant Radiant Warmer.
