ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
The main aim of the current trial was to explore our hypothesis that cooling head wraps lower the core temperature more effectively than ice packs on the head during forced-air warming after pediatric cardiac surgeries.METHODS:
This study was a single-center Randomized Controlled Trial. Participants were children with a weight ≤ 10 kg and hyperthermia during forced-air warming after cardiac surgeries. When the core temperature reached 37.5 °C, ice packs on the head (group C) or a cooling head wrap (group H) were used as cooling devices to decrease the core temperature. The primary outcome was the core temperature. The secondary outcomes were the foot surface temperature and heart rate. We measured all outcomes every 30 min for 240 min after the patient developed hyperthermia. We conducted two-way ANOVA as a pre-planned analysis and also the Bonferroni test as a post hoc analysis.RESULTS:
Twenty patients were randomly assigned to groups C and H. The series of core temperatures in group H were significantly lower than those in group C (p < 0.0001), and post hoc analysis showed that there was no significant difference in core temperatures at T0 between the two groups and statistically significant differences in all core temperatures at T30-240 between the two groups. There was no difference between the two groups' surface temperatures and heart rates.CONCLUSIONS:
Compared to ice packs on the head, head cooling wraps more effectively suppress core temperature elevation during forced-air warming after pediatric cardiac surgery.Palavras-chave
