Hypothermia risk study for surgery patients
This study looks at how common low body temperature is during surgery and tests a tool to predict it. It may help your surgical team keep you warmer and safer.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- You are scheduled for surgery
- Your surgery is not just a local numbing shot (like at the dentist)
- You are not having a surgery where the doctor needs to purposely cool your body
- You do not have a medical condition that affects how your body controls temperature

This study aims to predict which children might get too cold during surgery under general anesthesia lasting more than 30 minutes. It's trying to create a simple checklist to help doctors keep kids warm and safe.
This study uses machine learning to predict which patients might develop hypothermia (low body temperature) during laparoscopic surgery for gynecological conditions. If you are a woman scheduled for this type of surgery, you may be able to help researchers better understand and prevent this risk.
This study compares three different methods of measuring your body temperature during surgery to see which is most accurate. It may help improve how doctors monitor patients during operations.
This trial tests whether carefully managing a patient's body temperature during cancer surgery can reduce the risk of postoperative delirium and improve long-term survival. It is for older adults undergoing major cancer surgery.
This test looks at whether warming patients during laparoscopic abdominal surgery helps prevent low body temperature (hypothermia) in the recovery room.
This trial looks at how older patients' body temperature changes during hip replacement surgery and whether that affects the amount of anesthesia medicine needed. The goal is to improve care for elderly patients undergoing this common procedure.
