We measured and compared the perioperativehypothermia incidence before the implementation (November 24th, 2015 – January 15th, 2016) and after the implementation (April 6th,2016 – July 21st, 2017).RESULTS: The incidence of unintended perioperative hypothermia was 35% and 23.8% in the pre-implementation and postimplementationsections, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant (p=0.002).CONCLUSION: The incidence of unintended perioperative hypothermia can be significantly decreased with the evidence-basedimplementations.

Abstract

BACKGROUND: Unintended Perioperative Hypothermia (UPH) is defined as a core body temperature less than 36°C. The TurkishSociety of Anesthesiology and Reanimation [Türk Anesteziyoloji ve Reanimasyon Derneği (TARD)] published a “Guideline for thePrevention of the Unintended Perioperative Hypothermia” in 2013. This study aims to decrease the incidence of unintended UPH inour hospital using a protocol, which is prepared according to the recommendations in the Guideline for the prevention of unintendedperioperative hypothermia.METHODS: A prospective quality improvement study was conducted with the protocol, which was prepared to decrease theincidence of unintended perioperative hypothermia in patients undergoing surgery. We measured and compared the perioperativehypothermia incidence before the implementation (November 24th, 2015 – January 15th, 2016) and after the implementation (April 6th,2016 – July 21st, 2017).RESULTS: The incidence of unintended perioperative hypothermia was 35% and 23.8% in the pre-implementation and postimplementationsections, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant (p=0.002).CONCLUSION: The incidence of unintended perioperative hypothermia can be significantly decreased with the evidence-basedimplementations.

Özet

AMAÇ: İstenmeyen perioperatif hipotermi vücut sıcaklığının 36°C’nin altına düşmesi olarak tanımlanır. Türk Anesteziyoloji ve Reanimasyon Derneği (TARD) 2013 yılında “İstenmeyen Perioperatif Hipoterminin Önlenmesi Rehberini” yayınladı. Amacımız rehber önerilerini içeren bir protokol oluşturmak ve hastanemizde perioperatif hipotermi insidansını azaltmaktır. GEREÇ VE YÖNTEM: Cerrahi geçiren hastalarda perioperatif hipotermi insidansını azaltmaya yönelik oluşturulan protokol ile ileriye yönelik bir kalite iyileştirme çalışması yaptık. Hastaların perioperatif hipotermi insidansını; implementasyondan önce (24 Kasım 2015–15 Ocak 2016) ve implementasyondan sonra (6 Nisan 2016–21 Temmuz 2017) ölçtük ve karşılaştırdık. BULGULAR: İstenmeyen perioperatif hipotermi (
