The Relationship Between the Frequency of Intraoperative Hypothermia and Fragility Scores

NCT06010069 | Completed

• 1 other identifier: 22.11.2022 No: 2022-21/187
• Study Type: observational
• Target: 90
• Locations: 1 country
• Sites: 1

Brief Summary

The goal of this observational study is to compare frequency of intraoperative hypothermia between fragilitly groups of eldery patients who underwent orthopedic surgical procedures. It aims to answer those questions:

• İs there any difference between fragility groups in terms of hypothermia frequency during orthopedic surgical procedures?
• Are there any other factors that influence the frequency of hypothermia such as age, body mass index, room temperature etc. ? Participants body temperature before anestesia application,and before surgery had started was measured and measurament was done during whole procedure. Measuraments had been done by tympanic thermometer.

Conditions

Hypothermia; Anesthesia; Fragility

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• frequency of hypothermia

  difference between frailty groups in terms of frequency of hypothermia

  during the orthopedic surgical procedure

Study Arms (3)

pre-frail patients

That patient group have clinical frailty scale scores 1,2 or 3 which is accepted as non-frail.

Diagnostic Test: body temperature measurament

frail patients

That patient group have clinical frailty scale scores 4 or 5 which is accepted as frail.

Diagnostic Test: body temperature measurament

very frail patients

That patient group have clinical frailty scale scores 6,7,8 or 9 which is accepted as severly frail.

Diagnostic Test: body temperature measurament

Interventions

body temperature measurament DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

body temperature of every patient was measured with tympanic thermometer during surgical procedure

frail patients; pre-frail patients; very frail patients
