Using the spot-on device for monitoring core body temperature during colon laparoscopic surgery and prevent non-therapeutic hypothermia.
Take active measures to prevent non-therapeutic hypothermia during the laparoscopic colon surgery. We improve these measures using heat conductive air warm blankets placed under and o over the patient. Perform monitoring core body temperature every 15 minutes by spot-on device compared with standard nasopharyngeal probe.
