METHODS: This study is a prospective longitudinal cohort which we include data collected...
The U.S. Global Change Research Program reports that the frequency and intensity of extreme heat are increasing globally. Studies impact climate change on child health often exclude sleep, despite its importance for healthy growth development. To address this gap in literature, we studied unusually high temperatures summer 2022 infants' sleep. Sleep was assessed objectively using Nanit camera monitors homes. Generally, sleep not impacted when stayed below 88° but negatively reached over...
