Table 2 Multivariate linear model of factors associated with change in body temperature during transport
From: Assessment of rewarming methods in unplanned out-of-hospital births from a prospective cohort
| Variables | Adjusted temperature difference, °C (95% CI) |
|---|---|
| Outside temperature (per 10 °C) | 0.16 (0.08; 0.24) |
| Weeks of gestation | 0.04 (0.003; 0.08) |
| Weight (per kg) | 0.25 (0.10; 0.39) |
| Rewarming methods | |
| Plastic bag + cap + skin-to-skin | reference |
| Plastic bag + cap | −0.18 (−0.32; −0.05) |
| Skin-to-skin + cap | −0.15 (−0.31; 0.01) |
| Incubator | 0.33 (0.13; 0.52) |
| Initial body temperature (per °C) | −0.53 (− 0.59; − 0.46) |
