Summary

Previous research has shown beneficial effects of prewarming on preventing inadvertent perioperative hypothermia (IPH). Warming the surface of the body before the induction of anesthesia can reduce the temperature difference between the core and periphery, thereby reducing the degree of core-to-peripheral thermal redistribution. It has been proved that initiation of warming before surgery can be more useful for preventing IPH than warming only during surgery. Nevertheless, there are not many researches on effects of short period (\<30 min) prewarming, especially in gynecologic laparoscopic surgery. Accordingly, the investigators designed this study to test if IPH can be effectively prevented when 10 minutes of prewarming is added to intraoperative active warming in patients undergoing gynecologic laparoscopic surgery.

Conditions

  • Hypothermia; Anesthesia

Interventions

DEVICE

Prewarming

In the operating theater, participants allocated in Prewarming group received 10 min-prewarming, which is cutaneous warming before induction of anesthesia. For prewarming, forced air warming system (WarmTouch WT 6000 Warming Unit, Medtronic, Minneapolis, MN, USA) was used and the warming temperature of the device was set to 45°C.
