Methods. 53 infants (25 healthy, 16 premature, 12 infants of diabetics mothers) were examined. Heat production, rectal temperature, brown adipose temperature, motility and sleep state electropolygraphy were registered.

Results. Correlation between thermoregulation criteria and sleep state organization was found in term babies and premature infants of 35-36 weeks gestation from the first day of live. Correlation was absent in infants from mothers with severe diabetes mellitus.

Conclusions. Results of investigation showed that thermoregulation in the sleep cycle is disturbed in cases of perinatal pathology.
