Results

This randomized controlled trial demonstrated that adding a 5-minute limb-focused prewarming protocol to standard whole-body prewarming significantly attenuated redistribution hypothermia. The intervention group showed a significantly higher core temperature at 30 minutes after anesthesia induction and a smaller decline from baseline. Peripheral skin temperature and perfusion index were also significantly higher at multiple peri-induction time points.

Baseline Characteristics

A total of 82 participants were analyzed (41 in the intervention group and 41 in the control group). There were no significant differences between groups in age, sex, height, weight, body mass index, ASA physical status, comorbidities (hypertension, diabetes mellitus, ischemic heart disease), or preoperative laboratory values (total protein, albumin, hemoglobin).

Participant flow

Of 90 eligible patients, 82 were randomized and included in the analysis. Eight patients were excluded prior to randomization due to emergency surgery (n=4) or refusal to participate (n=4). No participants were lost after randomization, and all randomized patients were included in the primary outcome analysis.

Adverse events

No adverse events related to the intervention were observed.

Outcome measures

The primary outcome was core temperature at 30 minutes after anesthesia induction.
Secondary outcomes included peripheral skin temperature, perfusion index, and the change in core temperature from baseline.

Plan to share IPD

No.
