What is hypothermia?

Let health care workers have to prevent intraoperative patient hypothermia

Most people are not aware of the "loss of temperature" that has been the subject of national debate due to the Gansu marathon, but health care workers are well aware of it. Because for health care workers temperature monitoring is a relatively routine but very important work, especially in the surgical process, temperature monitoring has important clinical significance.

If the intraoperative patient's body temperature is too low, the patient's drug metabolism will be weakened, the coagulation mechanism will be impaired, it will also lead to an increase in the rate of surgical incision infection, the change of extubation time and anesthesia recovery effect under anesthesia conditions will be affected, and there may be an increase in cardiovascular complications, a decrease in the patient's immune system, a slow wound healing rate, a delay in recovery time and a prolongation of hospitalization, all of which are detrimental to the patient's early recovery.

Therefore, health care providers need to prevent intraoperative hypothermia in surgical patients, strengthen the frequency of intraoperative monitoring of patients' body temperature, and observe the changes of patients' body temperature at all times. Most hospitals now use disposable medical temperature sensors as an important tool for intraoperative patients or ICU patients who need to monitor their temperature in real time.

Medlinket's even disposable temperature sensor can be used with the monitor, making temperature measurement safer, simpler and more hygienic, and also providing continuous and accurate temperature data. Its choice of flexible material makes it more comfortable and convenient for patients to wear. And as disposable supplies, eliminating repeated sterilization can reduce the risk of cross-infection between patients, ensuring patient safety and avoiding medical disputes.
