Summary

This trial tests whether using a forced-air warming device during an elective cesarean section under spinal anesthesia can prevent maternal hypothermia (low body temperature) and shivering. The study includes 120 pregnant women at term who are scheduled for a planned C-section. Researchers will measure the incidence of hypothermia and shivering, and also check if the warming affects the baby's outcomes.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Forced-air warming device
What this could lead to
If effective, this simple device could become standard care during cesarean sections, reducing maternal discomfort and complications from hypothermia.
What could go wrong
The trial is relatively small and early, and results may not apply to all settings. The device may not significantly improve outcomes or could cause overheating.
