Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The present proposal intends to determine the effect of prewarming on body temperature in the perioperative period of patients submitted to digestive system surgeries and to evaluate a perioperative "Zero-Heat-Flux Cutaneous" body temperature thermometer in comparison to the standard care (temporal thermometer in the preoperative and postoperative, and esophageal in the intraoperative period). This is a randomized clinical trial consisting of three groups, namely: preoperative warming of patients with blanket and cotton sheet (control); preoperative warming with forced air warming system for 20 minutes (Intervention 1), and participants submitted to preoperative warming with a forced air warming system for 30 minutes (Intervention 2).
