PROSPECTIVE STUDY SHOWING EFFECTS OF GENERAL ANAESTHESIA ON TEMPERATURE CHANGES IN INDIAN ADULTS

Abstract

During intraoperative period patients are often unconscious or their autonomic system is partially blocked, and the operation suite is generally air-cooled. There are various other settings in operation theatre causing hypothermia under anaesthesia which can change patientÂ’s thermohomeostasis. This study will discuss the factors affecting the temperature changes during general anaesthesia in Indian Adults.
