Quantifying Heat Balance Components in Neonates Nursed under Radiant Warmers during Intensive Care
Thermoregulation is considered a top priority in neonatology due to the fact that relative to adults, neonates have a morphological susceptibility to excessive heat exchange with the environment, and exhibit limited physiological/behavioural responses to thermal strain. Consequently, the environment...
