Summary

Hypothermia is a common complication in pediatric anesthesia. Hypothermia will prolong the recovery time of anesthesia, and may also lead to increased oxygen consumption, prolonged blood coagulation time, and affect the metabolism of anesthetic drugs and postoperative immune function. Sevoflurane is the most commonly used inhaled anesthetic in children. This study explored the effect of sevoflurane on the sweat threshold of pediatric patients and analyzed the characteristics of body temperature regulation in children of different ages under anesthesia, which will help to understand the mechanism of body temperature regulation in children under anesthesia, and also provide a scientific basis for clinical anesthesia temperature management.

Conditions

  • Child, Only
  • Temperature Regulation; Disorder
  • Low Body Temperatures
  • Sevoflurane

Interventions

DEVICE

temperature monitoring

Core temperature will be measured in the distal esophagus. The esophageal probe will be inserted after intubation to the depth from the upper incisors recommended by Bloch et al,1 specifically one-quarter of the patient's height plus 4.5 cm.

DRUG

Sevoflurane

Anesthesia induction will be standardized for all participants., the children will undergo inhalational induction using 8% sevoflurane with a fresh gas flow of 5 L/min in 100% oxygen. Once children loses consciousness, the sevoflurane concentration will be reduced to 3%-5% and then maintained as close as possible to 1.2 MAC, age-adjusted
