Abstract

THERMAL CARE IN NEW BORN - A REVIEW

Dr. Shubhangi Kapil Thakur*

ABSTRACT

Appropriate thermal protection of the newborn prevents hypothermia. Neonatal hypothermia is a worldwide problem and leads to increased morbidity and mortality in new born infants. Physiological, environmental and behavioural risk factors predispose the newborn infants for neonatal hypothermia.[1] Hypothermia remains a wide spread problem in this population, especially after birth and through the first week of life. This review focuses on reduce heat loss after birth and during neonatal intensive care unit hospitalisation. Recommendations for practice are given to minimize heat loss during care and promote thermal stability for very low birth infants. It is essential to continue focus on thermal stability and eliminate hypothermia in the very low birth weight population.
