Sumario:<h4>Background</h4>Inadvertent intraoperative hypothermia is frequent during open surgeries; however, few studies on hypothermia during laparoscopic abdominal surgery have been reported. We aimed to investigate the incidence and risk factors for hypothermia in patients undergoing laparoscopic abdominal surgery.<h4>Methods</h4>This single-center prospective cohort observational study involved patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery between October 2018 and June 2019. Data on core body temperature and potential variables were collected. A multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to identify the risk factors associated with hypothermia. A Cox regression analysis was used to verify the sensitivity of the results.<h4>Results</h4>In total, 690 patients were included in the analysis, of whom 200 (29.0%, 95% CI: 26%-32%) had a core temperature < 36°C. The core temperature decreased over time, and the incident hypothermia increased gradually. In the multivariate logistic regression analysis, age (OR = 1.017, 95% CI: 1.000-1.034, P = 0.050), BMI (OR = 0.938, 95% CI: 0.880-1.000; P = 0.049), baseline body temperature (OR = 0.025, 95% CI: 0.010-0.060; P < 0.001), volume of irrigation fluids (OR = 1.001, 95% CI: 1.000-1.001, P = 0.001), volume of urine (OR = 1.001, 95% CI: 1.000-1.003, P = 0.070), and duration of surgery (OR = 1.010, 95% CI: 1.006-1.015, P < 0.001) were significantly associated with hypothermia. In the Cox analysis, variables in the final model were age, BMI, baseline body temperature, volume of irrigation fluids, blood loss, and duration of surgery.<h4>Conclusions</h4>Inadvertent intraoperative hypothermia is evident in patients undergoing laparoscopic surgeries. Age, BMI, baseline body temperature, volume of irrigation fluids, and duration of surgery are significantly associated with intraoperative hypothermia.
