Therefore, short warming interruptions between pre-warming and intraoperative warming might result in lower hypothermia rates. The aim of this retrospective investigation was to determine whether the incidence of inadvertent intraoperative hypothermia was affected by the warming interruption. METHODS: The lowest intraoperative body core temperature value and the warming interruption time were taken from anaesthesia records. Body core temperature was recorded continuously, and a patient was classified to be hypothermic if the lowest recorded temperature value was <36°C. Hypothermia rates and the correlation between warming interruption times and intraoperative hypothermia rates were calculated. RESULTS: Five thousand eighty-four patients were analysed. The intraoperative hypothermia rate was 15.3%. Nineteen patients (0.4%) had a recorded temperature of <35.0°C. An increase in forced-air warming interruption time was significantly associated with an increase in intraoperative hypothermia rates (P < .0001). Patients with interruptions in forced-air warming >20 minutes showed significantly higher hypothermia rates than those with interruptions of ≤20 minutes (P < .0001). CONCLUSION: Intraoperative hypothermia rates increased significantly with longer forced-air warming interruptions between pre-warming and intraoperative warming. Short warming interruptions can preserve the effect of pre-warming and are associated with low intraoperative hypothermia rates."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1111/aas.13521"],["dc.identifier.eissn","1399-6576"],["dc.identifier.issn","0001-5172"],["dc.identifier.pmid","31828757"],["dc.identifier.purl","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gs-1/17088"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/92067"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.intern","Migrated from goescholar"],["dc.relation.eissn","1399-6576"],["dc.relation.issn","1399-6576"],["dc.relation.issn","0001-5172"],["dc.relation.orgunit","Universitätsmedizin Göttingen"],["dc.rights","CC BY 4.0"],["dc.rights.uri","https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0"],["dc.subject.ddc","610"],["dc.title","Short interruptions between pre‐warming and intraoperative warming are associated with low intraoperative hypothermia rates"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","yes"],["dc.type.version","published_version"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]
