Thermal suit (T\u2010Balance<jats:sup>\u00ae<\/jats:sup>) is an option for passive warming perioperatively. We hypothesized that the thermal suit will not maintain normothermia more efficiently than conventional cotton clothes when also other preventive procedures against unintentional hypothermia are used.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>One hundred patients were recruited to this prospective, randomized trial. They were allocated to the Thermal Suit group or a Control group wearing conventional hospital cotton clothes. All patients received our institution's standard treatment against unintentional hypothermia including a warming mattress, a forced\u2010air upper body warming blanket and a warming device for intravenous fluids. Eardrum temperature was measured pre\u2010operatively. In the operating room and post\u2010anaesthesia care unit temperatures were measured from four locations: oesophagus, left axilla, dorsal surface of the left middle finger and dorsum of the left foot. The primary outcome measure was temperature change during robotic\u2010assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>The temperatures of 96 patients were analysed. There was no difference in mean core temperatures, axillary temperatures or skin temperatures on the finger between the groups. Only foot dorsum temperatures were significantly lower in the Thermal Suit group. Intraoperative temperature changes were similar in both groups. In the post\u2010anaesthesia care unit temperature changes were minimal and they did not differ between the groups.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>Provided that standard preventive procedures in maintaining normothermia are effective the thermal suit does not provide any additional benefit over conventional cotton clothes during robotic\u2010assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/aas.12945","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,7,25]],"date-time":"2017-07-25T10:48:35Z","timestamp":1500979715000},"page":"1133-1141","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Thermal suit in preventing unintentional intraoperative hypothermia during general anaesthesia: a randomized controlled trial"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"61","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0409-9656","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"S.\u2010L.","family":"Lauronen","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Anaesthesia Tampere University Hospital Tampere Finland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"M.\u2010L.","family":"Kalliom\u00e4ki","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Anaesthesia Tampere University Hospital Tampere Finland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"A.
