LITERATURE REVIEW
Unintended Perioperative Hypothermia
Rosenkilde, Vamosi, Lauridsen, & Hasfeldt, (2017) sought to determine the fact that,
Hyperthermia in turn is referred to as the core body temperature of an individual which is less
than 96.8 degree Fahrenheit or 36 degree Celsius. This in turn is usually one of the most
common occurrence within un- warmed surgical patient. There seems to be an increase within
the frequency of surgical site who in turn tends to experience perioperative hypothermia. The
researcher of the study tends to review physiology of the temperature regulation and key
mechanisms of the Hypothermia.
On the contrary, Rosenkilde, Vamosi, Lauridsen, & Hasfeldt, (2017) established the fact
that, a mild degree of Perioperative Hypothermia tends to eventually results in mortality and
morbidity. The results tends to establish the fact that, pre- warming for the minimum of 30
minutes helps in reducing the risk associated with the subsequent hypothermia. It has been
concluded that, frequently monitoring of the body temperature and also avoiding unintended
perioperative hypothermia with the help of passive and active warming measures are useful in
the prevention of such complications.
Factors that influence effective perioperative temperature management by anesthesiologists: a
qualitative study using the Theoretical Domains Framework
Boet & et.al (2017) sought to determine the fact that, Inadvertent perioperative
hypothermia is mainly associated with the various set of adverse outcomes. Usage of the
effective and safe warming techniques which is very useful in the prevention of the Inadvertent
perioperative hypothermia. The researcher of the study tends to use qualitative approach where
semi- structured interview has been carried out with staff anesthesiologists at the Canadian
academic hospital. The interview transcripts in turn were coded with the help of direct content
management. On the contrary, Boet & et.al (2017) established the fact that, there are various set
of potential targets which in turn is considered to be very useful in improving the temperature
management practice which in turn includes intervention and helps in the improvement of the
temperature management practice. This is considered to be one of the most effective practice
which in turn is considered to be very useful in
effective perioperative temperature management by anesthesiologists.
