Abstract

A thermotherapy device (10), for new-born and premature babies, has a bed substructure (30) and an incubator chamber (20) with a positioning aid (50) in the incubator chamber (20). The positioning aid (50) is a flexible sheet fixed to a holding structure (60). The positioning aid (50) can be stretched out by the holding structure (60). The width to which the positioning aid (50) can be stretched out is adjustable by adjusting a width of the holding structure (60). The positioning aid (50) can be pulled and/or pivoted out of the incubator chamber (20) with the aid of the holding structure (60). The holding structure (60) is movably mounted in the bed substructure. The holding structure (60) has at least two pivotable holding arms (61). The two holding arms (61) form a holding arm pair.
