I would start by force closing all open apps and restarting the iPad.
Try using only native OS apps (Safari, etc.) for a while to see if the
issue recurs.  If all seems well slowly bring in other apps to identify
the potential bad one.

At some point the battery will probably get bad and cause problems too.
You may want to check its health as well.
