This study evaluated a low-cost portable bubble incubator (Atom Medical Inc, Tokyo, Japan) that does not require an electric power supply for neonatal intensive care at Ola During Children's Hospital, a tertiary care children's hospital in Sierra Leone.
Safety,Efficacy
The primary outcome was the time that the body temperature remained at or above 36.5 degrees.
The secondary outcome that the temperature inside the incubator remained at or above 34 degrees.

The study was conducted over two weeks between January 8 and 27, 2020. Neonates weighing 800 to 2000gram, with stable respiration and born at Ola During Children's Hospital were enrolled. Heart rate and SpO2 were continuously measured by pulse oximeters on the wrist or sole of the neonates. The same type of thermometer was used to measure the temperatures inside the bubble incubator, outside the bubble incubator, and the surface temperature of the hot water container insulation. The axillary temperature of the neonate was measured. The temperature inside the bubble incubator was measured by a probe positioned at its center. The probe for measuring the external temperature was positioned at the same height as the incubator. The oxygen concentration in the bubble incubator was measured by an oximeter placed approximately 10 cm above the mouth of the neonate. An oximeter rather than a CO2 meter was used for reasons of safety. A cylinder of water was heated when the temperature inside the bubble incubator was 32degees or less or the body temperature was 36.5 degrees or less. The body temperature of the newborns was measured every 4 hours for 24 hours before the start of the research. Body temperature, the temperature inside and outside the bubble incubator, and the surface temperature of the insulation around the water containers were measured every 15 minutes after the start of the study or turning the water heater on. The measurements were continued hourly unless the bubble incubator and body temperatures became too high. The neonates were taken out of the bubble incubator after 22 hours, and returned to a cot with monitoring of their body temperature and the environmental temperature of the intensive care unit every 4 hours for 24 hours.
