Evaluation of different body temperature measurement methods for patients in the intraoperative period

CONCLUSION: the data from the current study do not recommend using infrared temporal thermometers as a strategy for measuring the body temperature of patients undergoing anesthetic-surgical procedures. Central cutaneous thermometers and esophageal/nasopharyngeal thermometers are equivalent for detecting intraoperative hypothermia.PMID:38655937 | DOI:10.1590/1518-8345.6873.4143
