Abstract:
The objective of this paper is to investigate the performance of the Incubator for Newborns at the departments of intensive care in Jafer Ibn Aouf Reference Children Hospital, is governmental Children specialized hospital. Using the INCUTM Incubator Analyzer to analyzing various aspects of performance of neonatal incubator and its compliance with the set requirements and regulations according to the technical standard IEC (International Electro technical Commission) 60601-2-19. The data used in this study were obtained by interpreting of the performance test results of neonatal incubator. Numerically, According to the results presented in Tables (1 & 3), the neonatal incubator have achieved acceptable performance and sustaining the requirements of the standard IEC 60601-2-19. In other words, the temperature at points T1, T2, T3, and T4 does not differ from the neonatal incubator average temperature by more than 0.8°C, and this temperature does not differ more than 1.5 °C from the incubator control temperature. Compared to the established technique, the estimation error is negligible.
