NameTimeMethod
To analyse the incidence of perioperative hypothermia in adult patients undergoing cancer surgery.Timepoint: 1. After induction of anaesthesia <br/ ><br>2. During the surgery hourly analysis <br/ ><br>3. Before shifting the patient out of the operation theatre <br/ ><br>4. Immediately after the surgery in the recovery room
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
To identify the risk factors for perioperative hypothermia. <br/ ><br>To observe incidence of adverse outcomes of perioperative hypothermia like intra operative arrhythmia, blood loss, delayed recovery from anaesthesia /neuromuscular blockade, unplanned post op ventilator support, post-op shivering, surgical site infection, prolonged ICU stay, prolonged hospital stay. The study will also observe if there are any complications like hyperthermia and thermal injury due to the warming measures.Timepoint: 1. During the surgery <br/ ><br>2. Immediate post operative period
