Impact of a Global Warming Strategy of the Patient on the Prevalence of Hypothermia in the Recovering Room
France174 participantsStarted 2024-11-08
Plain-language summary
50% of patients are hypothermic when they arrive in the recovery room. This hypothermia is potentially at risk for the patient (increases bleeding, risk of infection, risk of cardiac involvement, morbid mortality) and 33,2% steel hypothermic when they discharge from the recovering room. The anesthesia team must prevent these risks through prevention and treatment measures. Currently the majority of patient warming is done only in the operating room, we want to measure the impact of the extension of this warming before and after the surgery on the patient's temperature and on side effects related to hypothermia.

AI-rewrites the medical criteria so a patient or caregiver can understand them. Always confirm with the trial site.
Inclusion Criteria:
* Patient undergoing laparoscopic visceral surgery under general anesthesia with transition to recovering room
Exclusion Criteria:
* Patient undergoing urgent surgery.
* Presence of pre-existing infection (temperature higher than 38°C when receiving the patient in the hospital ward.
* Patient with predetermined length of stay in recovering room.
Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.

Compare between the experimental group of global warming (RéGlo) and the control group of per-operative warming, the prevalence of hypothermia at the exit of Interventional for patients who underwent laparoscopic visceral surgery.
