An interventional study of forced air warming group and control group in Preventing Hypothermia and Perioperative Hypothermia, sponsored by Ankara Diskapi Training and Research Hospital. Completed at 1 site in Turkey. Open to male participants aged 50 Years to 85 Years, including healthy volunteers. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2019-10-08.

36 patients American society of anesthesiology (ASA) physical status I,II and III undergoing general anesthesia for elective transurethral resection of the prostate (TUR-P) surgery will be included in the study. Patients will be randomized into two groups; first group(control group) and second group (forced-air warming). Resistive heating will start when patients are transferred to the operating room table; forced-air warming will start before preoperative 30 minute.
The primary aim of this study was to compare the effect of prewarming on perioperative hypothermia in elderly patients undergoing TURP under general anesthesia. In addition, we aimed to evaluate the effects of prewarming on hemodynamic variables, PACU output time, tremor, patient comfort and satisfaction. The investigators plan to enroll 36 patients in 2 groups. Body temperature will be measured at the core temperature, hemodynamic variables. Shivering will be graded by visual inspection. Thermal discomfort scale, patient satisfaction will be evaluated. The investigators hypothesize will decrease the forced air prewarming incidence of perioperative hypothermia.
499 studies on the registry are indexed under Hypothermia; 54 are open to participants now.
This study's enrollment of 36 is below the median of 80 across 351 interventional studies indexed under Hypothermia.

Perioperative measurements of core temperature (centigrade ° C)
After the operation patients will be admitted to the PACU. Here, body temperature will be assessed and the incidence of hypothermic patients (body temperature \< 36°C)will be measured.
Time frame: 2-3 hours
Evaluation of hemodynamic variables (arterial blood pressure)
systolic blood pressure (SBP) in mmHg, diastolic blood pressure (DBP) in mmHg, mean arterial pressure (MAP) in mmHg will be measured.
Time frame: 2-3 hours
Evaluation of hemodynamic variables (heart rate)
heart rate (HR) in beats per minute will be measured.
Time frame: 2-3 hours
Number of patients with postoperative shivering
After the operation patients will be admitted to the PACU. Here, postoperative shivering will be measured and graded by visual inspection.
Time frame: 2-3 hours
To assess patient satisfaction
patient satisfaction scale (using a Likert scale type (range, 1 to 7) verbally administered questionnaire for patient satisfaction)
Time frame: 12 hours
