    eLearning Module: Innovations in Inadvertent Perioperative Hypothermia Prevention

    Redistribution temperature drop (RTD) is the major cause of perioperative hypothermia and the most important factor affecting RTD is the temperature of the periphery before induction of anaesthesia.

    Using clinical evidence and best practice, this webinar will focus on how prewarming can help reduce the impact of RTD and how effective insulation can protect heat loss during transportation and times when active warming is not available.

    Upon completion of this eLearning module, you will be able to:

    1. Understand why redistribution temperature drop (RTD) is the major cause of perioperative hypothermia
    2. Describe how prewarming can help reduce the impact RTD
    3. Explain how effective insulation can protect heat loss when active warming is not available
