The aim of this study was to extend and develop knowledge of the clinical parameters of cold injury syndrome (CIS) in hypothermic infants and newborns, so that morbidity, mortality, and neurodevelopmental disturbances associated with the condition can be reduced. ⋯ The severity of hypothermia, leukopenia, and thrombocytopenia with DIC correlates with prognosis and death rate. Hypothermia in infants and newborns can cause psychological and neurodevelopmental disturbances in survivors.
