Risk of perioperative hypothermia: An integrative review
DOI:

Objective: To identify the occurrence and the risk factors that determine the development of the nursing diagnosis ‘risk for perioperative hypothermia’.
Method: Integrative review, using the acronym PIO (patients, intervention, outcomes), in which P=adult and older adults; I=elective surgeries;
O=risk factors associated with perioperative hypothermia. The review was conducted and reported based on the Check-list Preferred Reporting Items for
Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyzes (PRISMA), following the seven steps proposed by the PRISMA method. Results: The search generated 854 articles,
excluding duplicates and non-relevant titles. After applying the exclusion criteria, 13 articles were submitted to the final analysis. Low body mass index, advanced
age and prolonged surgical time were the factors most related to the development of hypothermia in surgical patients. The management of hypothermia
helps to reduce the risk of adverse cardiac events, infectious complications, and bleeding, besides bringing greater comfort to patients. Conclusion: Nurses
need to act before the hypothermic condition sets in, recognizing the risk factors inherent to each patient and identifying which care technologies to apply.
