Abstract
The study design is a cross-sectional prospective. The participants are well term and late preterm neonates, both male and female who are ages 0-28 days old and free from any history of critical conditions such as respiratory, renal and cardiac disease. body temperature of the neonates was repeatedly measured using both the methods and the agreement between the two were analyzed using the Bland-Altman analysis. The study concluded that the bland Altman analysis shows only a small and non-significant mean difference at all between the two groups and good agreement.
