Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Core body temperature

    temperatured recorded in esophagus

    through study completion, an average of 12 months

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Rescues number

    through study completion, an average of 12 months

  • skin lesions

    through study completion, an average of 12 months

Study Arms (2)

Electrical heating pad

EXPERIMENTAL

Electrical heating pad (WARMTAC device). Patients will be randomized to one arm. In this arm, the WARMTAC device will be conected and warmed to 41 degrees before patients lay down.

Device: WARMTAC

forced-air warming device

EXPERIMENTAL

Forced-air warming device (3M device). In this arm, the 3M blanket will be conected to forced-air machine and warmed to 41 degrees before patients lay down.

Device: 3M Bair Hugger

Interventions

WARMTACDEVICE
