considerable difference in terms of the effect of the two means of incubation on assessing the vital
signs and weight improvement of the premature infants. It had been observed in the study that
kangaroo care came up with a more normal cardiac rate and greater improvements in weight than in
incubator care which only stabilized the temperature of the premature infants. In terms of
