Nursing Experience in Preventing Intraoperative Hypothermia During Shoulder Arthroscopy
This article summarizes the nursing practice for a patient undergoing arthroscopic rotator cuff repair combined with glenoid labrum repair of the left shoulder. Comprehensive warming measures—including preoperative operating room environment prewarming, intraoperative use of forced-air warming blankets, warmed irrigation and infusion fluids, and dynamic nasopharyngeal temperature monitoring—effectively reduced the incidence of intraoperative hypothermia and improved patient comfort. During shoulder arthroscopy, factors such as surgical field exposure, room-temperature irrigation, anesthesia-induced thermoregulatory inhibition, and operating room conditions significantly increase the risk of hypothermia. Through clinical practice, this study outlines nursing strategies for hypothermia prevention, demonstrating successful maintenance of intraoperative body temperature, prevention of hypothermia-related complications, and promotion of postoperative recovery.
