Filter by:In this study, the "Curve of Intraoperative Body Temperature Change in Patients with VATS Surgery" was taken as the main research content to retrospectively analyze the intraoperative body temperature and its change rules of patients who met the research conditions, and draw a trend curve, namely, the curve of body temperature change.Taking "time" as the independent variable and "body temperature" as the dependent variable, the correlation between the two was statistically analyzed.Through the development of the body temperature change curve, we can further understand the phenomenon that the body temperature of patients undergoing VATS surgery changes with the progress of surgery, and longitudinal understand the change trend and the general rule of the body temperature change.The results can provide a basis for clinical development of scientific preoperative evaluation plan, hypothermia prevention strategy and intraoperative intervention plan.
The purpose of the study is to compare the effectiveness of resistive blanket warming to forced air warming in maintaining body temperature in participants undergoing renal transplantation.
This study will look at the incidence of post-spinal shivering (PSS) among the obstetrics population and will investigate whether higher operation theater (OT) temperature range or/and IV Ondansetron are able to reduce the incidence of PSS. This is a double-blind, randomized, factorial study, patients will be grouped into 4 groups - LP, HP, LO, HO (L= low-temperature range, H= high-temperature range, P= placebo, O=Ondansetron). All patients undergoing cesarean section under spinal anesthesia will be recruited, and it will be conducted in obstetrics OT.
Based on client needs and technological requirements, a wearable sensor device was designed and developed using principles of 'social innovation' design. The device underwent multiple iterations in product design and engineering based on user-feedback and then following pre-clinical testing, a techno-feasibility study and clinical trial were undertaken in a tertiary-care, teaching hospital in Bangalore, India. Clinical trial phases I and IIa {studies/pilot studies designed to demonstrate clinical efficacy or biological activity ('proof of concept' studies)} for evaluation of safety and efficacy were undertaken in the following sequence: first with healthy adult volunteers; then healthy mothers; healthy babies; stable babies in the Neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) and then a baby with morbidities. Time-stamped skin temperatures obtained at 5-minute intervals over a 1-hour period from the device secured on upper arms of mothers and abdomen of neonates were compared against readings from thermometers used routinely in clinical practice, radiant warmer and multimodal sensor
The investigators will propose a randomized cross-over trial using a uniform and strongly balanced 4-period design in which will include four operations for each surgeon. Surgeons will be randomized to 1 of 4 sequences: ABBA, BAAB, AABB or BBAA. The design is "uniform" in that each treatment appears the same number of times within each sequence (uniform within sequence) and if each treatment appears the same number of times within each period (uniform within each period). It is strongly balanced with respect to first-order carryover effects because each treatment precedes every other treatment, including itself, the same number of times
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.
Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of auricle position on body temperature measurements made with tympanic membrane thermometer in adult patients. Methods: The study was conducted with a quasi-experimental design with a pre-test and a post-test. A total of 143 patients who fit the inclusion criteria of the study were included in the sample. The research carried out between 1 November - 31 December 2016 in the emergency department. Body temperature measurements were carried out on the patients in the study firstly by not changing the position of the auricle and then repeated after a minute, this time by changing the position of the auricle. Results: The difference between the measurement values found in two different positions was 0.31 0C, and the Bland Altman plot showed that the differences were distributed systematically around the value 0.31. The difference between the lengths of measurements performed on two separate positions was detected to be 1.08 second. During body temperature measurements performed through giving position to auricle, 59.2 % of the patients never felt discomfort. Conclusions: It was found in the comparison of two positions that there was a significant difference between the tympanic membrane thermometer measurements made by positioning the auricle and those without positioning.
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.
Background: To maintain the body temperature of preterm newborns is one of the essential criteria for discharge from hospital. Aim: we aimed to assess the feasibility and the safety of an early weaning protocol from incubator to unheated cot at 1400 g preterm newborns. Methods: This was a randomized control trial with preterm neonates with birth weights < 1400 g conducted at King Fahad Medical City, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. We compared newborns weaned to cot at a weight of 1400 g to newborns weaned at a weight of 1600 g. The outcome was to assess the feasibility of the protocol in terms of temperature control and average weight gain. Results: A total of 23 preterm neonates were recruited in this study. The baseline characteristics were similar except for the gestational age was higher in the newborns enrolled to 1400 g group. Early weaning was achieved in 100% of newborns without significant adverse effects on temperature stability or weight gain. Incidence of low and high temperatures per newborn and the average weight gain before and after transfer and after transfer were not different between the two groups. Conclusion: Our results showed the feasibility and safety of 1400 g weaning protocol for preterm newborns, without any adverse effects or increasing the neonatal length of hospital stay. Further investigations in larger patient groups are recommended.
