Body temperature management is very important to be controlled in surgery because there are so many effects that can be caused due to uncontrolled body temperature during operations such as decreased heart rate, breathing frequency and blood pressure, the skin becomes cyanotic, and even can cause disturbance of consciousness. The body already has a mechanism that can reduce the risk of a decrease in temperature during surgery such as skin vasoconstriction, changes in behavior, shivering and non-shivering thermogenesis. Many factors can influence changes in body temperature thermoregulation in the operating room such as operating room temperature, area of surgery wound, fluid, age, anesthesia, and the duration of the operation, so that we need to know perioperative temperature management.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
