Erika Nordby (born February 2000), also known as Baby Erika, Miracle Baby and Canada's Miracle Child, is a Canadian girl originally from Edmonton, Alberta. She is primarily known for having been revived after spending two hours without a heartbeat due to hypothermia. ==Freezing== Erika and her mother Leyla were spending the night of 22/23 February 2001 at a friend's home in Edmonton.〔 Leyla and an unnamed friend had been out partying earlier in the night, leaving a relative of the friend to babysit. When the two returned to the home, the babysitter left through the back door, which had a broken latch.〔 In the early hours of the morning, 13-month-old Erika left the house alone wearing only a diaper. The temperature outside was approximately . As the girl customarily had a bottle at 2 am, her mother became concerned when she awoke at 3 am and Erika was not beside her in bed. Leyla found her in a snowbank shortly thereafter by following footprints leading away from the back door. She brought Erika inside and called an ambulance; she also attempted CPR and mouth-to-mouth resuscitation, but was unsuccessful. Paramedics were unable to intubate at the scene due to Erika's condition.〔 Erika was taken to Stollery Children's Health CentreL. 26-year-old Leyla was detained by police for five hours on suspicion of child neglect, after which she went to the hospital.〔 Upon her arrival at Stollery, Erika was considered to be clinically dead: she had been without a pulse for approximately two hours.〔〔 She had no vital signs and had a core body temperature of about . This compares to a normal body temperature of ;〔 the lowest survived human body temperature resulting from accidental (not medically controlled) hypothermia was . Despite this, her heart resumed beating after she was placed under a warming blanket.〔 Doctors suggested the cold had placed her into a hibernation-like state, protecting her body from serious damage.〔 There were initially suggestions that parts of her hands or feet might need to be amputated because of damage from frostbite,〔 but this turned out not to be necessary.〔 She did require skin grafts on her foot and physiotherapy to enable her to walk again.〔
