Predicting low body temperature during surgery in children
Part of Injuries & trauma, Pain 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 looks at how getting cold during surgery (hypothermia) might affect how confused or restless you feel when waking up from anesthesia. Researchers want to find ways to prevent these side effects and make your recovery smoother.
This test looks at whether warming patients during laparoscopic abdominal surgery helps prevent low body temperature (hypothermia) in the recovery room.
This trial tests if carefully controlling body temperature after surgery can prevent confusion or slow thinking in older adults recovering from major cancer operations.
This study tests if lowering body temperature during heart surgery affects how two brain-monitoring devices track anesthesia depth. It may help doctors better manage anesthesia during bypass surgery.
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.
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.
