A soft, washable surface; for a longer stay it is changed between patients.
- 1Control panel
Set temperature, humidity and oxygen concentration; the device maintains them automatically and sounds an alarm if they deviate.
- 2Oxygen flowmeter
Delivery of oxygen into the chamber for patients in respiratory failure.
- 3Access ports

IncubatorWhat it is and how it works
The incubator maintains constant, set environmental conditions: temperature, humidity and oxygen concentration. We use it for puppies and kittens after a caesarean section, for patients chilled after long procedures, for small animals in respiratory failure, and for geriatric patients with impaired thermoregulation.
What it offers
Newborns and very small animals lose heat extremely quickly; the incubator gives them a chance to get through the first, most difficult hours.
Controlled oxygen therapy without the stress of a mask or oxygen collar: the patient stays calm and the staff can see it at all times.
