Transepidermal Water Loss during Sleep in Infants [PDF]

Sleep, 1987
Transepidermal water evaporation rate (ER) was measured in 207 infants with a mean postnatal age of 12.7 +/- 10.6 weeks. Measurements were made from the forehead with the use of an Evaporimeter during polygraphic sleep recordings performed under standard conditions. ER values were computed in g/m2 X h.
