  • Title: Heat shield reduces water loss.
    Author: Fitch CW, Korones SB.
    Journal: Arch Dis Child; 1984 Sep; 59(9):886-8. PubMed ID: 6486866.
    Abstract:
    A heat shield covered by polyvinyl chloride film greatly reduced insensible water loss and radiant energy requirements in 12 preterm infants on a radiant cradle. Measured transmittance of radiant energy emitted by the radiant heater was impeded minimally by various thin film plastics but was blocked significantly by Perspex.
