The prevalence of SIs in hypothermic infants and the development of established guidelines for this population has not been established. Our primary objective was to determine the prevalence of SI in hypothermic infants who are 60\u2009days old or younger presenting to the emergency department (ED). In addition, we calculated the prevalence of SI by organ system and identified its microorganism.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>We performed a systematic review by searching the literature in Medline, Embase, Web of Science, and CINAHL. We limited our search to infants \u2264\u200960\u2009days with a rectal temperature &lt;36.5\u00b0C who presented to the ED. We defined SI as bacteremia, urinary tract infection (UTI), meningitis, herpes simplex virus infections, or pneumonia. We calculated the prevalence of SI. Quality of studies and bias was assessed using QUADAS\u20102.

We identified four studies meeting our inclusion criteria. We estimated the prevalence of SI as 4.86% (95% confidence Interval [CI] 1.97\u20138.82) for infants \u2264\u200960\u2009days old. In a subgroup analysis of infants \u2264\u200928\u2009days (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u200916\/374), we estimated the prevalence of SI as 5.15 (95% CI 0.95\u201312.0).
