Filter by:This prospective, randomized, single-center study compares intraoperative heat loss at the core temperature level in patients scheduled for direct anterior total hip arthroplasty under general anesthesia and who will or will not, according to randomization, receive one hour of pre-warming with a pulsed air thermal blanket prior to anesthesia induction.
Perioperative hypothermia is associated with many complications, including surgical site infections, delayed wound healing, coagulopathy, prolonged hospital and intensive care unit length of stay. Perioperative close monitoring of the body temperature is important, and this is recommended by many clinical practice guidelines. In this study the investigators aimed to detect the incidence of perioperative hypothermia in adult patients in the operating room, and to detect the possible associated risk factors.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the best method for keeping patients warm during cesarean deliveries and the effect of temperature change on the patient and baby
This study compare effect of using survival thermal blanket and draping fabric as substitute for perforated blanket to reduce the incidence of inadvertent perioperative hypothermia in geriatric patients.
Accidental perioperative hypothermia is a frequent complication of anesthesia that favors the occurrence of infections, bleeding and perioperative cardiovascular accidents, and is responsible for perioperative excess mortality. Although preventive measures are widely used, it remains very frequent in France. This observation led a group of experts to draft, under the aegis of the Société Française d'Anesthésie et de Réanimation (SFAR), several recommendations aimed at improving the prevention of perioperative accidental hypothermia. Perioperative hypothermia is defined as a core body temperature below 36.0 ° Celsius. This study aims to evaluate the impact of hypothermia prevention training on the proportion of hypothermic patients in the operating room.
This study is part of a post-market clinical follow-up (PMCF). The purpose of this study is to verify in a routine clinical environment with a number of caregivers and subjects that the enFlow performs as intended when used as an element of maintaining acceptable core temperatures.
In this study, patient groups in which normothermia is preserved by using multiple active warming methods in the intraoperative period in AIS surgery, followed by a single compressed air blowing system and allowed mild to moderate hypothermia were compared.
Compare core body temperature after laparoscopic surgery using the forced air heating system versus the WARMTAC® (a carbon fiber electric blanket).
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.
This study evaluates the effect of active prewarming on the frequency and duration of perioperative hypothermia. 50% of patients will receive active warming with forced-air devices prior to entering the operating room, and the other 50% will not receive any active heating measures.
