The sample size of the health workers: Convenient sample of 4 out of 6 health workers engaged in the management and care of newborns admitted at Neonatal Intensive Care Unit-MRRH will be enrolled in the study. These study participants who will be nurses on duty will observe the use of Autothermo, ask a few questions and document findings at the end of each shift. The remaining two nurses will be recruited as study research nurses who will enroll and use Autothermo to monitor temperatures of the admitted newborns during the study period. The sample size for parents or caregivers will be calculated basing on the Kish and Leslie where P (0.5) will be the probability of parents or caregivers who will express willingness to have their newborns’ temperatures monitored with Autothermo and q (1-p) will be the probability of those who will not express willingness to use Autothermo. The study will use a precision of 0.126 and a Z of 1.96 giving a total of 60 parents or caregivers to be recruited into the study. Taking |
Feasibility and Acceptability of Autothermo: The study will include health workers and parents or primary caregivers of newborn. Parents and caregivers who are 18 years and above will be recruited and all health workers in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. The parents or caregivers will be informed that the Autothermo bracelet will be removed at any time at their request.
Autothermo Performance Assessment: All neonates (0 to 28 days) admitted to the neonatal unit of MRRH during the study period will be screened for inclusion into the study.
