It keeps conditions ideal to support life, whether it's chicken eggs or human infants.
The infant and other infants in the hospital are the ones who benefit from an incubator. It keeps the germs out and also keeps the germs that that baby has in instead of spreading around the hospital.
America's first hospitals for premature infants were built at the turn of the 20th century at fairs, amusement parks and expositions. These hospitals represented both a medical and a social frontier. They had a great impact on the medical profession because they demonstrated the success of caring for premature infants using incubators. One of the first modern incubator systems was invented by Alexandre Lion of France. The Lion incubators which were later used in the first American incubator hospitals, were invented in 1891. These incubators were heated by a cylindrical water boiler that was mounted on the outside wall of the incubator. This type of incubator system was unique, because the incubators had their own ventilation system. Inspired by Lion's success and fascinated by the popularity of the exhibits, Martin Couney set up an incubator exhibit at an exposition in Berlin. Couney was German, and a student of the noted pediatrician Pierre Budin. Budin had studied under Stephane Tarnier, who had invented the first warm air incubator. Couney set up his first American incubator hospital at the Trans-Mississippi Exposition in 1898 in Omaha, Nebraska.granville t woods

This represents a woman who has been pregnant once in the past (G= total number of pregnancies), and delivered one infant (still living) at term. P, from left to right is "# infants delivered at term, # infants delivered pre-term- (ie, at 20 wks gestation but less than 37), followed by the number of pregnancy losses and lastly, and so important!-- the number of living children.
Body temperature regulation is a problem in premature infants because they lack sufficient body fat for insulation. Also, the hypothalamus is not yet fully functional.
Probably not The WIC program is for pregnant Women (or recently delivered), Infants and Children under 5.
Tarnier and Martin invented the Incubator Inspired by chicken incubators,which had been based on those depicted in Egyptian hieroglyphs, a French obstetrician by the name of Etienne Stephane Tarnier enlisted the help of a poultry raiser, Odile Martin, to construct incubators suitable for human infants. This 1880 adaptation of an ancient design has gone on to save millions of life.
AnswerThe inventor of the incubator was a Philippine pediatrician who is Fe Del Mundo. AnswerThe nursery incubator for premature infants was invented by Alexandre Lion, in France, in 1891. Fe Del Mundo (born November 27, 1911) was an astonishing woman, one of the most noteworthy medical doctors in history, and well worth studying. But she was not the original inventor of the incubator. Among her other achievements, she invented an incubator made of bamboo that could be used in rural areas without electric power.(The egg incubator was invented by Lyman Byce and Isaac Dias, in Petaluma, California. The patent was granted on June 2, 1885.)
