A newborn's axillary temperature is 97.6° F (36.4° C). He has a cap on his head. His T-shirt is damp with spit-up milk. His blan
ket is laid over him, and several children are in the room running around his bassinet. The room is comfortably warm, and the bassinet is beside the mother's bed away from the window and doors. What are the most likely mechanisms of heat loss for this newborn?
The shedding mechanisms that are occurring in this baby are convection and evaporation. During the convection process, the baby loses heat to the atmosphere when drafts hit its skin, but evaporation occurs when the baby's wet shirt touches her/him warm skin, the contact of a warm surface with a cold surface, causes heat release
