Table 3
Comparison of the means and standard deviations related to the mothers and infants’ temperatures in the skin-to-skin contact and routine care group.
| Variable | Group | | | Skin-to-skin contact | Routine care |
| Maternal temperature at the start of the intervention | 36.56 ± 0.46 | 36.4 ± 0.41 | 1.6 | 0.11 | Maternal temperature half an hour after the intervention | 36.56 ± 0.46 | 36.4 ± 0.52 | 1.6 | 0.11 | Maternal temperature one hour after the intervention | 36.43 ± 0.46 | 36.2 ± 0.67 | 1.6 | 0.11 | Infant’s temperature at the start of the intervention | 36.35 ± 0.46 | 36.32 ± 0.46 | 0.16 | 0.86 | Infant’s temperature half an hour after the intervention | 36.25 ± 0.5 | 36.4 ± 0.48 | −1.01 | 0.31 | Infant’s temperature one hour after the intervention | 36.44 ± 0.45 | 36.4 ± 0.48 | 0.63 | 0.52 |
