Predicting low body temperature during surgery in children
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are younger than 16 years old
- Your surgery will use general anesthesia (medicine to put you fully asleep)
- Your surgery will last longer than 30 minutes
- You are not having heart surgery or any surgery that requires your body to be cooled on purpose
- You do not have a thyroid condition (like hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism) that affects your body temperature

This study tests whether carefully controlling body temperature during and after cancer surgery can help older patients avoid confusion or memory problems after the operation. If you are 65 or older and having a longer cancer surgery, this may be a good option to discuss with your doctor.
This study tests a method to keep the body temperature stable during long abdominal surgery. It may help reduce complications and improve recovery.
This study uses computer models to predict if a patient's body temperature might drop too low during gynecologic laparoscopic surgery. The goal is to help doctors keep patients warm and safe during the procedure.
This study looks at how common low body temperature (hypothermia) is after surgery in recovery rooms. It aims to help improve patient care by measuring temperature changes and related outcomes.
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 study compares three different ways to measure your body temperature during surgery. It aims to see if a simple ear thermometer and a skin sensor work as well as the standard nose probe, so patients may have more comfortable and accurate temperature monitoring in the future.
