Immediate Care for Common Conditions in Term and Preterm Neonates: The Evidence.

Background: Several interventions provided to newborns at birth or within 24 h after birth have been proven critical in improving neonatal survival and other birth outcomes. We aimed to provide an update on the effectiveness and safety of these interventions in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs).

Summary: Following a comprehensive scoping of the literature, we updated or re-analyzed the LMIC-specific evidence for included topics.
