This practical text offers a comprehensive guide to perioperative
temperature management for anaesthetists, surgeons and nurses. The
physiological basics of thermoregulation and heat exchange are
covered, before the changes that occur during general and regional
anaesthesia are outlined. The relevant adverse scenarios associated
with perioperative hypothermia, including morbid cardiac events,
impairment of coagulation, increased blood loss and surgical site
infections are discussed, before the methods of measuring core
temperature and the equipment and techniques to keep patients warm
are described. Richly illustrated and clearly structured for quick
reference, Perioperative Temperature Management is an essential
daily resource to help ensure safe, effective practice.
