This study will compare the rates of hypothermia one hour after birth in full term infants randomized to receive standard WHO thermoregulation care (control group) or standard WHO thermoregulation care without immediate drying plus a plastic bag covering their torsos and lower extremities (intervention group). The axillary temperature of each infant will be taken within 15 minutes of birth at at one hour after birth with removal of the plastic bag. Hyperthermia, room temperature, and death will be recorded throughout the hospitalization for all infants. With an estimated baseline hypothermia rate of 15% and a hypothesized 10% absolute risk reduction (66% relative risk reduction), a sample size of 276 will be used to have a power of 80% and a confidence interval of 95%.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['CHILD'], 'maximumAge': '72 Hours', 'minimumAge': '1 Minute', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Estimated gestational age 37 weeks and greater\n* Birth weight greater than 2,500gms\n* Delivery in the hospital\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Infant admitted to the NICU\n* Birth weight less than 2,500gms\n* Abdominal wall defect or myelomeningocele\n* Major congenital anomalies\n* Blistering skin disorder'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT01604460', 'briefTitle': 'Evaluation of Use of Plastic Bags to Prevent Neonatal Hypothermia-Part V', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'University of Alabama at Birmingham'}, 'officialTitle': 'Randomized Evaluation of the Use of Plastic Bags to Prevent Neonatal Hypothermia in Developing Countries-Part V', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'UAB Neo 010'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'SHAM_COMPARATOR', 'label': 'Resuscitation-no plastic bag', 'description': 'Resuscitation per standard of care without a plastic bag', 'interventionNames': ['Procedure: Resuscitation-no plastic bag']}, {'type': 'ACTIVE_COMPARATOR', 'label': 'Resuscitation-torso bag', 'description': 'Use of plastic bag covering the torso and lower extremities for temperature regulation during and after resuscitation for the first hour after birth', 'interventionNames': ['Procedure: Resuscitation with torso plastic bag']}], 'interventions': [{'name': 'Resuscitation with torso plastic bag', 'type': 'PROCEDURE', 'description': "Infant will be placed within 10 minutes of his birth into a plastic bag to his/her axillae and the bag will be folded and taped to itself to prevent it from covering the infant's nose or mouth.
