(Abstracted from Anesthesiology, 122:276–285, 2015) Intraoperative core hypothermia can expose a patient to multiple complications. It is common for patients' core body temperature to be warmed through a forced air approach, but the core body temperature patterns with this method have been poorly characterized.
