Overview:
Many ASCs don’t have defined temperature management protocols for their perioperative patients and may not be able to recognize that their patients could be cold. Explore the important role that maintaining normothermia plays in helping to improve patient outcomes, including reducing SSI rates and decreasing intraoperative bleeding. Discuss crucial elements that should be included in a perioperative temperature management protocol and find out how these elements can be applied in the ASC setting.
