  • Title: Hypothermia during infant cystoscopy.
    Author: Nelson RP, Kinder W.
    Journal: J Urol; 1979 Mar; 121(3):333-4. PubMed ID: 430629.
    Abstract:
    Two cases of hypothermia during prolonged infancy cystoscopy are reported. A significant decrease in the core temperature also was noted when irrigating the bladders of small mongrel dogs with room temperature water. The complications of infant hypothermia are reviewed and the factors that predispose the infant to acute changes in body temperature are emphasized. The measures of maintaining the core temperature in the pediatric surgical patient are discussed and particular situations when prolonged cystoscopy may occur, necessitating warming of irrigation fluids, are presented.
