Hypothermia is a contributing factor to neonatal mortality and morbidity and is associated with a higher risk of infants developing hypoglycemia, jaundice, respiratory distress syndrome, sepsis, and suffering from intraventricular hemorrhage. Our goal is to promote standardized protocols and checklists, availability of equipment and supplies, timely debreifs, and education on best practices for hypothermia prevention.
