ROTHY: Perioperative Collection of Temperatures and Hypothermia
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Accidental perioperative hypothermia is a frequent complication of anesthesia that favors the occurrence of infections, bleeding and perioperative cardiovascular accidents, and is responsible for perioperative excess mortality. Although preventive measures are widely used, it remains very frequent in France. This observation led a group of experts to draft, under the aegis of the Société Française d'Anesthésie et de Réanimation (SFAR), several recommendations aimed at improving the prevention of perioperative accidental hypothermia.
Perioperative hypothermia is defined as a core body temperature below 36.0 ° Celsius.
This study aims to evaluate the impact of hypothermia prevention training on the proportion of hypothermic patients in the operating room.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Incidence of hypothermia on arrival in the post-anesthesia care unit (PACU) [Up to 24 hours]
On arrival in the PACU, hypothermia is defined as a core body temperature below 36°Celsius (presence or absence).
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Incidence of intraoperative hypothermia [Up to 24 hours]
From the time of entry into the operating room to the time of exit from the operating room. Hypothermia is defined as a core body temperature below 36°Celsius (presence or absence).
- Incidence of hypothermia in the post-anaesthesia care unit (PACU) [Up to 24 hours]
From the time of entry into the PACU to the time of exit from the PACU. Hypothermia is defined as a core body temperature below 36°Celsius (presence or absence).
- Delta Temperature Loss [Up to 24 hours]
difference in patient temperature between arrival in the operating room and the lowest temperature measured in the operating room or in PACU
- Incidence of continued sedation in the PACU partially or totally related to hypothermia [Up to 24 hours]
defined as continued sedation requiring mechanical ventilation in the PACU
