Filter by:The aim of the study conducted at the UKSH is to investigate the measuring accuracy of the body core temperature thermometer Tcore®. Therefore the bias of the measurements to the reference measurements of the bladder catheter thermometer is determined.
Compare core body temperature after laparoscopic surgery using the forced air heating system versus the WARMTAC® (a carbon fiber electric blanket).
Observational study to compare core temperatures obtained by 6 methods in patients undergoing cardiac surgery under cardiopulmonary bypass.
An increasing number of children undergo Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). In MRI, radio waves and magnetism are used to form images of the body's interior, to diagnose and monitoring diseases in children. Many children are sedated to be able to collaborate with the MRI procedure. Sedation and general anesthesia cause the child to some extent to lose the ability to regulate his or her own bodytemperature. MRI rooms are most often cold due to the function of the magnet, leading to a risk of hypothermia in young children. Conversely, the MRI scanner generates radio frequencies that are absorbed by the body and converted to heat, which especially in small children due to their large surface area can potentially result in an increase in bodytemperature. In this study we therefore want to investigate changes in bodytemperature in children who are undergoing MRI- scanning within the Neuroanesthesiology Clinic. Furthermore, we want to define possible risk factors for possible temperature changes. Our hypothesis: Children undergoing MRI scanning increase in bodytemperature.
Perioperative hypothermia is one of the most common anaesthetic complications, increasing the morbidity/mortality of our patients. Active prewarming with hot forced-air devices has demonstrated to be the most effective tool to prevent hypothermia, but its use is only recommended in long-term surgeries and the optimal prewarming duration has not been elucidated. Both spinal anaesthesia associated to the irrigation with liquids at low temperature instilled during transurethral resection (TUR) cause a decrease in the core temperature of the patient. This is a clinical trial comparing different time periods of prewarming in patients submitted to undergo elective transurethral resection. Our aim is to assess the effect of different time-periods of prewarming on preventing perioperative hypothermia during TUR with spinal anaesthesia. Investigators will compare different time periods: 0 minutes (control group), 15 minutes, 30 minutes and 45 minutes. 200 patients are going to be included in this study (50 patients in each group). Measurement of temperature will be performed using a tympanic thermometer and zero-heat-flux temperature sensor. Patients will be followed throughout their hospital admission. Data will be recorded using a validated instrument and will be analysed using the statistics program R Core Team.
Purpose of this study is to clinically evaluate and compare various patient centered outcomes using diode LASER in Continuous mode (CW) and Pulsed Mode (PM) using 300µm and 400µm fiber for depigmentation procedure.
This study sought to evaluate the vasomotor response in the pain referral area of healthy individuals, performing the same procedure with and without the experience of delayed onset muscle soreness.
During general anesthesia, temperature monitoring is critical especially in pediatrics. Recently developed 3M™ Bair Hugger™ skin temperature which is applied on temporal artery is correlated with core temperature measure by esophageal prove in several studies. Conventional skin temperature over carotid artery is also correlated with core temperature in several studies. The purpose of this study is comparing 2 methods of temperature monitoring in pediatrics. First, conventional core temperature measure by esophageal stethoscope. Second, 3M™ Bair Hugger™ applying on carotid artery.
Our goal is to evaluate the efficacy of the Westmed system vs the Bair Hugger Blanket.
This prospective randomized clinical trial will assess the effect of pre-operative convective warming on intra-operative thermoregulation in patients undergoing gastrointestinal or genitourinary surgical procedures with the Tiger anesthesia perioperative protocol.
