The Silent Side Effect of Surgery: Don't Underestimate the Dangers of Mild Hypothermia
Mild perioperative hypothermia is common, underestimated, and clinically significant—affecting cardiac safety, coagulation, wound healing, and recovery.
Although often overlooked, mild perioperative hypothermia is a frequent complication during surgery. Even small drops in core body temperature can increase cardiac risk, impair coagulation, delay drug metabolism, and raise infection rates. Understanding its causes, risks, and effective warming strategies is essential to improving surgical outcomes and patient safety.
