Sequential Compression Device on Body Temperature

April 3, 2014 updated by: Hyun Jeong Kwak, Gachon University Gil Medical Center

The Effects of Sequential Compression Device on Body Temperature During Propofol Anaesthesia: A Comparison With Elastic Stockings

We hypothesized that sequential compression device (SCD) compression system might induce more decreases on core temperature by increasing lower extremity blood flow. And, this study investigated the effects of SCD compression system on body temperature in patients during total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) with propofol and remifentanil.

Study Overview

Status

Completed

Conditions

Detailed Description

Anaesthesia was induced and maintained with propofol and remifentanil. During the surgery, temperature was measured and recorded using oesophageal temperature and the calf-minus-toe skin-surface temperature gradient, respectively.
