Study Summary

This trial will compare how well two different methods of warming patients' bodies work during kidney transplant surgery.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for individuals scheduled for elective kidney transplant surgery. It's designed to see if one method of keeping patients warm during the operation works better than another.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is testing two different ways to keep patients warm during kidney transplant surgery: a resistive blanket warming system versus a forced air warming system.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
There may be minimal side effects related to skin irritation or discomfort from the warmth delivery methods, but significant side effects are not commonly associated with these warming systems.
