    Objective: To analyze the evidence on the effectiveness of adequate humidity in incubators to prevent heat loss in the premature newborn. Material and methods: Of the articles reviewed, 10% (N= 1/10) his design is systematic reviews, 20% (N= 2/10) are meta-analysis, 30% (N= 3/10) are descriptive, 10% (N= 1/10) is transversal analytical, 10% (N=1/10) is controlled and randomized clinical trials, 10% (N=1/10) is cases and controls and 10% (N=1/10) is prospective. According to the strength of recommendation strong 30%, weak 40% and very weak 30%, according to the country where the investigations were carried out, there were found: France 40%, Brazil 20%, USA 30% and Argentina 10% respectively. Results: According to the review, it is evident that 100% of the articles (N = 10/10) point out the effectiveness of adequate humidity in incubators to prevent excessive heat loss in the premature newborn. Conclusion: It is concluded that the systematic review of the 10 scientific articles points out the effectiveness of adequate humidity in incubators to prevent heat loss in the premature newborn, because it manages to maintain a balance between the partial vapor pressure of the water close to the skin and the surrounding air, thus avoiding high insensible losses due to evaporation and therefore preventing heat loss.
