Medications used to put people to sleep during surgical procedures also cause changes in the body's ability to control its temperature. These changes can make a person's temperature drop below normal. To minimize this drop in body temperature, different types of body warming products are used during surgery. This study is designed to compare the the temperatures of people under general anesthesia after 60 minutes of warming with each product. The study hypothesis is that the people warmed with the Dynatherm Medical vitalHEAT vH2 System will decrease less in the first 60 minutes of warming time than people warmed with the Arizant Bair Hugger System.

Use of the Dynatherm Medical vitalHEAT vH2 Temperature Management System to warm patients undergoing orthopedic surgical procedures with an expected duration 2-3 hours and requiring general anesthesia.
Use of the Arizant Healthcare Bair Hugger Temperature Management System \& Bair Hugger Upper Body Blanket to warm patients undergoing orthopedic surgical procedures with an expected duration 2-3 hours and requiring general anesthesia.
The vH2 system utilizes a combination of localized heat and vacuum application to one hand \& forearm; this application opens AVAs in the palm of the hand and warms the extremity thus effectively warming the blood flowing to the body's core.
The Bair Hugger system is a forced air system providing convective warming via the circulation of warmed air through specially designed blanket which is placed over a portion of the body
