This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (CFDA 93.865 - Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research) provides $165,672 to The Leland Stanford Junior University for a 5-year research project focused on developing evidence-based practices for the management of neonatal hypothermia in newborn nurseries. The key objectives are to:

  1. Analyze electronic health record data from 8 university-affiliated nurseries to assess the relationship between hypothermia and clinical outcomes/interventions.

  2. Conduct interviews with healthcare professionals at these nurseries to gather qualitative data on hypothermia management practices and influencing factors.

  3. Employ a modified Delphi approach to develop expert consensus on evidence-based best practices for managing neonatal hypothermia in U.S. nurseries.

This foundational research aims to optimize treatment of neonatal hypothermia, which affects over 20% of late preterm and term infants in U.S. newborn nurseries annually. The findings are expected to inform future proposals investigating the impacts of hypothermia best practices on infant outcomes and resource utilization, with the overall goal of advancing high-value care in this domain.
