Clinical Trial Summary

Cold gases given during laparoscopic cholecystectomy are the most important cause of hypothermia. However, even surgery alone is an 80% important cause of hypothermia. Inadvertent perioperative hypothermia is a common complication of the surgical process that can cause serious complications. In most of the patients, tremors, increase in pain, deterioration in comfort and changes in some physiological parameters can be seen. Despite this, there are not enough warming devices that nurses can use practically and are easy to use, affordable and comfortable for the patient. In the literature, it is stated in the evidence-based guidelines for determining the hypothermia risks of patients and taking early precautions.


Clinical Trial Description

The parallel group randomized controlled three group study blinded by the evaluator aims to investigate the effectiveness of different warming methods in laparoscopic cholecystectomy patients. This study general surgery at Yozgat Bozok University Hospital in Turkey are performed in clinics. All patients are male and female patients who have undergone surgery and met the inclusion criteria. ;
