Intraoperative temperature management during emergency cesarean section: a retrospective observational study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Intraoperative hypothermia is a common complication during cesarean section (C-section) and associated with the high maternal mortality and morbidity. This study aimed to explore the risk factors associated with the incidence of intraoperative hypothermia in women who underwent emergency C-section deliveries.

Methods

We retrospectively enrolled women who underwent emergency cesarean deliveries from August 2022 to Dec 2023 at Suzhou Municipal Hospital of Anhui Province. Baseline characteristics, thermal status, and perioperative information were extracted. Hypothermia was defined as the onset of a core temperature below 36 °C. Data were compared between patients with and without a hypothermia during surgery. Logistic regression analyses were performed to determine
