Study Overview
Brief Summary
This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of prewarming methods in preventing intraoperative hypothermia in patients undergoing HoLEP surgery. Designed as a randomized controlled study, patients who receive prewarming will be compared with those in the control group.

- •Patients undergoing HoLEP surgery under general anesthesia
- •Patients who consent to participate in the study

Arms & Interventions
Prewarming Group
Patients will receive 10 minutes of 43°C forced-air warming and 41°C prewarmed intravenous fluid before surgery. Surgery will begin following the standard induction of general anesthesia once patients are in the operating room. An air blower set to 43°C will maintain patient warmth throughout the procedure.
Intervention: intraoperative body temperature (Diagnostic Test)
Control Group
No prewarming will be applied. Surgery will begin following the standard induction of general anesthesia once patients are in the operating room. An air blower set to 43°C will maintain patient warmth throughout the procedure.
Intervention: intraoperative body temperature (Diagnostic Test)
Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Time to onset of intraoperative hypothermia.
Time Frame: intraoperatively
Time to develop intraoperative hypothermia (when body temperature drops below 36°C)
Secondary Outcomes
- Hemodynamic parameters(intraoperatively)
- Volume of irrigation fluid used(intraoperatively)
- Changes in body temperature(intraoperatively)
- respiratory parameter(intraoperatively)
