Warming the ICU room after abdominal surgery
This study tests how warming the intensive care room after your abdominal surgery affects your recovery. It includes patients who are in the ICU after planned surgery and have no major health problems that affect body temperature.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You had planned abdominal surgery and are now in the intensive care unit (ICU) after surgery.
- You are 18 years or older.
- Your body temperature before surgery was normal (between 36°C and 37.5°C).
- You do not have a pacemaker, dementia, diabetes, high blood pressure, obesity, or certain muscle or skin conditions.
- You are awake, alert, not on a breathing machine, and can speak Turkish.
- You do not use alcohol or drugs heavily, and you are not taking medications that affect body temperature.
