Abstract :

Hypothermia refers to a condition in which the body temperature goes down the normal body temperature. It is common in neonates born at hospitals with a prevalence range of 32% to 85% and in case of home deliveries in the prevalence range of 11% to 92%. In developing countries we still lack thermal protection and this is an under-appreciated challenge for survival of newborn and neonates.
