Abstract: Low Birth Weight (LBW) babies are babies with birth weight <2500 grams. LBW is susceptible to various health problems, especially a decrease in body temperature due to the baby’s inability to adapt to extrauterine temperature or hypothermia. Hypothermia is the baby’s temperature < 36,5ºC. Hypothermia is a symptom and is often an early manifestation of a disease, which can end in death. Hypothermia cause hypoglycemia, metabolic acidosis and respiratory distress. BBLR complications one of which is the instability of body temperature because it is necessary to maintain a stable method of sticking to the skin to maintain its stability. The purpose of this study was to see the effect of the application of the Kangaroo met hod and the method of attaching the mother’s chest skin to the baby’s back skin to temperature stability at LBW . Quasi - experimental research methods, conducted in June - September 2018. Samples were 60 infants with consecutive sampling techniques. Results: Intervention of the Kangaroo method, the mean before and after the intervention 23.83, while the intervention method of attaching the mother’s chest skin to the baby’s back skin, the mean before and after the intervention amounted to 37.17 with Asym.sig.( 2 - tailed)=0.002. The average body temperature of infants with the intervention method of attaching the mother’s chest skin to the baby’s back skin approaches normal (36.5933ºC). Research conclusion : there is a difference in the effect of applying the Kang aroo method with the method o f attaching the mother’s chest skin to the baby’s back skin to the LBW temperature stability or in other words, the method of attaching the mother’s chest skin to the baby’s back skin is more effective at stabilizing the LBW bo dy temperature compared to the Kangaroo method. Suggestion : application of the method of attaching the mother’s chest skin to the baby’s back skin in LBW treatment with thermoregulation problems.
