Summary

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.

Interventions

DEVICE

Forced Air Warming System

The forced air warming system has a heater unit that blows air through a conduit to an "air blanket" that inflates with forced air that circulates throughout the blanket, and exits through tiny perforations on the patient-side of that blanket. The heat primarily warms the subject through convective means. As the warmed air escapes through the perforations in the blanket, it creates an environment of continuously circulating warm air that is in contact with the skin.

DEVICE

Resistive Blanket Warming System

This blanket is equivalent to an operating-room-safe electric blanket. Through a power cord, a separate power source powers a semiconductor layer within the resistive blanket to generate heat. The heat primarily warms the subject by conductive warming through direct skin contact, and, secondarily, by warming the air around the participant in areas where there is no direct skin contact.
