Smart Baby Scales Market Trends Size Share Analysis Forecast 2027 – TMR

Weight record is essential to monitor the adequacy of nutrition as well as fluid balance in newborns. A newborn’s weight at birth is an important marker of maternal and fetal health and nutrition. Low birth weight newborns have a higher risk of mortality in the first 28 days of life. Hence, an accurate weighing scale is a fundamental need of all special care neonatal units, delivery rooms, and pediatric clinics. Recording weight at birth is essential for the management of very low birth weight (VLBW) babies to predict neonatal morbidity and mortality. It also helps in identifying the level of care required for a baby. Sick and VLBW babies need daily weighing to decide fluid requirement, drug dosages, and weight gain patterns. Scales with an accuracy of + and - 5 gm are essential in the weight monitoring of VLBW babies.
The global smart baby scales market is anticipated to grow at a significant pace during the forecast period, owing to rise in awareness among parents about the effect of various diseases in low birth weight babies
