Hypothermia in Cesarean Sectio Patients in Regional Anaesthesia

November 2, 2018 updated by: Johan C Ræder, Oslo University Hospital

To study the core temperature perioperatively in patients due for elective cesarean sectio in spinal anaesthesia.

Core temperature will be registered by a zero-flux (SpotOn. 3m) probe on the forehead, starting in the holding area and continued until normotemperature post-operatively.
