Abstract: An infant warming apparatus for supporting an infant upon an infant bed. The apparatus has a sensor affixed to the skin of the infant to detect one or more physiological functions of the infant. A transmitter module is located within the sensor enclosure that includes an analog to digital converter and a transmitter to transmit digital information indicative of the physiological functions to a receiver located on the infant care apparatus and which can convert the digital signals into analog signals recognizable or usable by a monitor. An alternative embodiment includes the transmitter module located proximate to the infant within an infant scale located beneath the infant. The sensor is hardwired to the transmitter in the infant scale and signals relating to weight and/or a condition of the infant are transmitted by wireless telemetry to a monitor or other display device to display that information to the caregiver.
