Abstract :
Decrease the body temperature in LBW/
preterm neonates can cause for respiratory problems,
PH, hypoglycaemia, decrease oxygen intake, decrease
heart rate, reduced weight gain and reduced blood
coagulability.1 Objectives: 1. To assess the knowledge
level before and after STP among the mothers’ of

knowledge among the mothers’ of newborn 3. To

pre experimental design and purposive sampling
technique were used. The target population was mothers
of newborn and 30 samples were used. Before
intervention, the test was conducted by using
questionnaire on skin to skin contact. Then STP was
given. The post test was conducted after intervention by

Before STP, the Mean score was 6.1 and after STP, the
Mean score was 8.2. It depicts that, the STP on Skin to
