Background: The lack of physical contact during therapeutic hypothermia (TH) is challenging for parents of newborns with hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy. Holding is often avoided due to concerns for effects on infant temperature and for dislodging equipment.
Purpose: We assessed the effect of holding during TH on maternal and infant salivary cortisol levels and on infant vital signs.
