Abstract
Neonatal hypothermia is a worldwide problem and an important contributing factor for neonatal morbidity and mortality, especially in developing countries. The risk is higher for infants who are smaller birth weight and more premature. In Ethiopia specifically, admission hypothermia is estimated to be present in a staggering 69.4% of all neonatal deaths.
