Trial summary

To study the core temperature perioperatively in patients due for elective cesarean sectio in spinal anaesthesia. Core temperature will be registered by a zero-flux (SpotOn. 3m) probe on the forehead, starting in the holding area and continued until normotemperature post-operatively. Read more about this study

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • zero flux skin termometerDevice

    Core temperature is monitored continously, non-invasively

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. incidence of perioperative hypothermia, less than 36.0 degrees

    mesured by zero flux in forehead

    Measured: perioperatively

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. patient satisfaction: Patient will be asked to grade

    Patient will be asked to grade their feeling of being Cold/warm

    Measured: perioperatively, repeated

  2. duration of perioperative hypothermia

    number of minutes below 36.0 degrees

    Measured: perioperatively, continously

  3. shivering

    any shivering due to being cold

    Measured: perioperatively

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cesarean Section, run by Oslo University Hospital.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Nov 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

incidence of perioperative hypothermia, less than 36.0 degrees (time frame: perioperatively). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 5 Nov 2018.
