Abstract:Background
Admission temperature is inversely correlated with mortality and morbidity risk in extremely preterm newborns (EPNs). As almost all EPNs require advanced resuscitation at birth, we improved a simple and comprehensive management protocol to reduce admission hypothermia. This study reports the changes over the past 15 years in the rate of admission hypothermia in all EPNs. It clarified the distribution of admission temperature and the risk factors for developing admission hypothermia in recent EPNs.
