Özet

Perioperative hypothermia in pediatric patients is a condition that should be prevented due to complications likely to develop. Currently although there are various methods to prevent perioperative hypothermia, use of evidence-based guidelines for prevention and management of hypothermia will improve success of surgical procedure, and healing process by reducing the incidence of hypothermia-induced complications. Because maintenance of normothermia in children requires a multidisciplinary approach, we believe that this review will help to establish a joint healthcare approach.
