Setting up the Resus-A-Cradle:

• Place a receiving blanket or disposable pad on the Resus-A-Cradle.
• Layer your heating pad and additional receiving blankets on top as you normally would.
• Close the case to help retain heat to preheat blankets for every birth while having everything ready for the unexpected.
• The Resus-A-Cradle is easily removed from the case so it can be used to place the baby with the mother for the newborn exam.

• Place the baby scale sling in the Resus-A-Cradle first
• Then place three disposable tape measures at the head, chest and abdomen levels to facilitate those measurements. Use a fourth tape measure to measure the baby’s length
• Then simply lift the baby sling up to weigh the baby
• Finish the rest of the exam with the newborn in the Resus-A-Cradle
