The influence of thermal environment on pulmonary hemodynamic acclimation to extrauterine life in normal full-term neonates

Objective: To assess chronological changes of pulmonary blood flow in response to ambient temperature load in normal full-term neonates.

Methods: Group I (n=8) neonates were maintained at 25–26°C for the first 24 h after birth, with Group II (n=7) at 32–33°C...
