NCT00815191

Brief Summary

The primary objective of this study is to determine if the intraoperative distal esophageal (core) temperature with vitalHEAT warming is non-inferior to upper-body forced-air warming in patients undergoing open colectomy under general anesthesia. This is a randomized study.
