A study has been conducted on infants under six months of age during induction and anaesthesia to compare the effect on heat loss when a warming blanket, a humidifier and an overhead heater were used. The combination of all three was associated with significantly less heat loss than when the blanket was used alone. The particular benefit of the overhead heater during prolonged preparation for neurosurgery was also demonstrated. It is recommended that overhead heaters should be used during induction of anaesthesia in infants.
一项针对六个月以下婴儿在诱导麻醉期间的研究，比较了使用保暖毯、加湿器和头顶式加热器时对热量散失的影响。与单独使用保暖毯相比，这三种设备组合使用时热量散失显著减少。研究还证明了头顶式加热器在神经外科手术长时间准备过程中的特殊益处。建议在婴儿麻醉诱导期间使用头顶式加热器。
