The effects of intravenous (IV) fluid warming on core body temperature in a group of dogs undergoing an elective orthopedic procedure was studied. An IV fluid warmer was used alone or in conjunction with forced warmed air to determine the individual or additive effects of IV fluid warming. These effects were compared to those in dogs with no heat support or those with only forced warmed air in a randomized prospective study design. The conclusion was that IV fluid warming had no effect on the maintenance or preservation of core body temperature in this population of dogs, and that, as previous reports have shown, forced warmed air decreased the rate of heat loss during anesthetic procedures. One possible explanation for the lack of benefit is the location of the fluid warmer in relation to the patient. To our knowledge, this is the first study to examine the effects of IV fluid warming on core body temperature in dogs undergoing an elective orthopedic procedure.
研究了在一群接受择期骨科手术的狗中，静脉（IV）输液加温对核心体温的影响。单独使用或结合强制加热空气使用 IV 输液加温器，以确定 IV 输液加温的单独或附加作用。将这些影响与无热支持的狗或仅用强制加热空气的狗进行比较，采用随机前瞻性研究设计。结论是，IV 输液加温对这群狗的核心体温的维持或保护没有影响，并且正如之前的报告所示，强制加热空气降低了麻醉过程中的热量损失速度。缺乏益处的一个可能解释是输液加温器相对于患者的位置。据我们所知，这是第一项研究，检查了在接受择期骨科手术的狗中 IV 输液加温对核心体温的影响。
