Study:
Comparison of a Circulating-water Garment With a Combination of Forced-air Warming and Circulating-water Mattress Warming During Major Abdominal Surgery
Rationale:
n/a
Purpose:
The purpose of this study is to see if the combination of a circulating water mattress
beneath the patient combined with forced air warming over top of the patient will prevent
hypothermia (low body temperature) just as well as a garment that circulates warm water
around the patient, during your major abdominal surgery. Patients will be randomly assigned
to one of these two groups.
