The adequate environmental warmth was essential in the care of small infants because they could not maintain their own body heat. Due to less insulation, an infant’s thermal control is more limited than that of an adult who can maintain body heat at temperatures as low as 0℃ (32℉) while for the full-term infant it is between 20℃ to 23℃ Hypothermia has since been recognized as a significant contributor to neonatal morbidity and mortality for all new-born infants and has been defined on every continent and even in many countries that are measured to be tropical. Although data on hypothermia in new-borns are rather scarce, studies in selected countries have revealed that 67% of high-risk infants who were born outside of the hospital were hypothermic. A study aim to assess the knowledge and practice regarding prevention of neonatal hypothermia among postnatal mothers admitted in selected hospitals, Kanpur Uttar Pradesh. Descriptive Cross Sectional Survey studyplan was used for the learning. The setting of the study was Rama hospital and research centre and Anjali hospital anddiagnostic centre Kanpur Uttar Pradesh and the sample size was 100 postnatal mothers selected by convenient sampling technique in the study. The data was collected and analysed onbasis of objectives. The findings of the study shows correlation between the level knowledge and practice -0.066 and p= 0.513. and showing non- significant between knowledge and practice of among postnatal mothers, majority of 64% of postnatal mothers have good knowledge, 33% have excellent knowledge, 3% have average knowledge and 0% have poor knowledge. And the majority of postnatal mothers have 62% have good practice, 38% have average practice, 0% have excellent practice and 0% have poor practice. There no significant association between the knowledge and practice regarding prevention of neonatal hypothermia among postnatal mothers with their selected demographic variables age in year, religion, education of mothers, occupation of mothers, family monthly income. It canbe concluded that the majority of postnatal mothers have good knowledge and practice regarding prevention of neonatal hypothermia.
