To compare the clinical responses of extremely low birth weight (ELBW) infants resuscitated in polyethylene bags with ELBW infants who were resuscitated using traditional temperature control measures. ⋯ Resuscitation of ELBW infants in polyethylene bags led to higher skin temperature on admission to the NICU and at 1 hour of life. These infants were less likely to develop grade 3-4 PVL than infants resuscitated using traditional temperature control measures. No deleterious clinical effects were observed in infants resuscitated using polyethylene bags.
