The Effect of Perioperative Heated Sock Application on Hypothermia and Vital Signs in Bladder Tumor Surgery

The Effect of Perioperative Heated Sock Application on Hypothermia and Vital Signs in Bladder Tumor Surgery:A Randomized Controlled Trial

About This Trial

The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of perioperative use of heated socks on the prevention of hypothermia and its impact on vital signs in patients undergoing bladder tumor surgery. It is anticipated that the data obtained from the study will provide evidence that the use of perioperative heated socks can help prevent hypothermia and positively influence vital signs in patients undergoing bladder tumor surgery.

The Effect of Warm Sock Application on Hypothermia After admission to the urology ward, patients who meet the sample selection criteria will be identified one day prior to the surgical intervention.

The Effect of Warm Sock Application on Hypothermia After admission to the urology ward, patients who meet the sample selection criteria will be identified one day prior to the surgical intervention. Eligible patients will be informed about the study by reading the voluntary informed consent form, which includes information about the purpose, content, and methodology of the research. Both verbal and written consent will be obtained from patients who agree to voluntarily participate in the study. Initially, the Descriptive Characteristics Form will be administered to the patients. One group will be given heated socks, one group will be given regular socks, and one group will not receive any intervention. The effect of these interventions on hypothermia will be examined.
