Preterm Infant, Body Temperature
Air vs. Cutaneous Control Mode for Preterm Infants ≤ 32 WG in Incubators: Impact on Body Growth and Morbidity
Previous studies have shown that mortality and morbidity in preterm neonates are correlated with the fall in body temperature on admission. Hypothermia can be decreased by reducing body heat losses to the environment.
