Decrease body temperature during caesarean Section (CS)is happened due to administered intravenous fluids and thermoregulation mechanism disorders it will lead to increase in oxygen consumption, heart rate, blood pressure, pain. The study aimed to evaluate the effect of applying warming measures on prevention hypothermia among parturient women during caesarean delivery. Methods:A quasi-experimental design was conducted on 60 parturient women candidates for elective cesarean delivery at Obstetrics Operating Room in Mansoura University Hospital from February to July 2016, divided randomly into two groups, the intervention group were (Appling warming measures), and control group were (received routine measures). Data were collected by two tool ( A structured Interviewing Questionnaire , Scale of Shivering and record to follow temperature.Results : revealed that the baseline temperature were stable in both group but it decreased within 30 min of starting the cesarean section in control group and it was highly statistically significant differences, with P-value <0.001. frequency of shivering as considered via Wrench's scale was 27(90%) of women in the intervention group had no shivering at score zero compared to 18(60 %) of women in the control group during the time spent in the recovery room. Conclusion:The study concluded that intra-operative warmed measures prevent hypothermia and shivering in parturient women undergoing cesarean delivery .
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
