ISAPS & Quad A: Staying Warm Under the Lights: Practical Strategies to Prevent Perioperative Hypothermia in Plastic Surgery I May 29, 2026, 16:30 UTC
Join our speakers as they take us through perioperative hypothermia in plastic surgery. Come ready with questions to ask our expert directly about this important topic!
Perioperative hypothermia is a frequent and often overlooked risk in plastic surgery, impacting patient safety, surgical outcomes, and regulatory compliance. This presentation explores the physiological consequences of hypothermia and reviews evidence‑based strategies to maintain normothermia throughout the perioperative continuum.
Attendees will examine plastic–surgery–specific risk factors, compare active and passive warming modalities, and review temperature-monitoring requirements. Through practical examples and case scenarios, the session emphasizes how to implement standardized warming protocols that promote consistency, quality improvement, and compliance in surgical settings.
For surgeons, residents, and non-surgical professionals, including nurses, assistants and other non-surgical team members.
