Testing a baby warmer for hypothermic newborns in Nigeria
Part of Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This study tests a special baby warmer (Celsi Warmer) to help warm up newborns who have a low body temperature. If your baby is being treated at the Lagos University Teaching Hospital and cannot do skin-to-skin care, this device may help keep them warm and safe.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your baby is being treated at the Lagos University Teaching Hospital in Nigeria.
- Your baby was born at this hospital (not transferred from another facility).
- Your baby weighs between 1.0 and 4.0 kilograms (about 2.2 to 8.8 pounds).
- Your baby has a low body temperature between 32.0°C and 36.0°C (moderate to severe hypothermia).
- Your baby cannot do skin-to-skin care (Kangaroo Mother Care) right now, for example because the mother is unavailable or baby is in the NICU.
- Your baby does not need a breathing machine (ventilator) and does not have serious conditions like birth asphyxia or major birth defects.

This trial tests a special care bundle to keep babies warm right after birth. It may help with temperature, heart rate, and make breastfeeding easier.
This study looks at why some babies, especially premature ones, have trouble keeping warm (hypothermia). It has two parts: one for babies in the neonatal ICU and one for infants under 2 having surgery. The goal is to find better ways to keep them safe and warm.
This study tests a new way to constantly monitor body temperature in newborns who are receiving cooling treatment, which is often used to protect the brain after birth complications. The goal is to see if this monitoring is safe and effective.
This study tests whether actively keeping mothers warm during planned C-sections helps prevent newborn babies from getting too cold right after birth. If you are having a planned C-section with spinal anesthesia, this simple extra warmth might benefit you and your baby.
This study compares different approaches to “cooling” treatment in newborns with mild hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (mild brain injury from not enough oxygen around birth). The goal is to see which approach works best and is safest for babies like yours.
This study uses a special ultrasound with a contrast dye to look at blood flow in the brain and kidneys of newborns with birth asphyxia (lack of oxygen) during cooling treatment. It helps doctors understand how cooling affects these organs.
