In some implementations, a memory device may detect power up and may identify, based on detecting the power up, a plurality of blocks of the memory device for which a power up based refresh determination is to be performed. The memory device may perform the power up based refresh determination on the plurality of blocks. The memory device may determine whether a block, of the plurality of blocks, satisfies at least one of an age condition that is based on a difference between a current time and an opening time associated with opening the block for programming, or a temperature condition that is based on a difference between a current temperature and an opening temperature associated with the block at the opening time. The memory device may selectively refresh the block based on determining whether the block satisfies at least one of the age condition or the temperature condition.
