Brief Summary

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

In this study, we aim to compare the core temperature measured with two noninvasive ZHF thermometers and a urinary bladder thermometer against a gold standard blood temperature measured in the pulmonary artery in patients undergoing on-pump cardiac surgery. Additionally we intend to compare the reproducibility of the ZHF measurements by using two devices simultaneously in each patient.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Anesthesia will be induced with fentanyl, propofol and rocuronium and maintained with sevoflurane and fentanyl or sevoflurane and remifentanil infusion. Hypotension after induction of anesthesia will be treated primarily with phenylephrine or ephedrine and secondarily with norepinephrine infusion.

After induction of anesthesia a PAC (Edwards Lifescience, Thermodilution Paceport Catheter 931F75, 7.5F (2.5 mm) 110 cm) will be inserted in the pulmonary artery and connected to a Vigilance 2-monitor. Core temperature at the tip of the PAC will be measured every minute and displayed on the monitor. Two SpotOn™ ZHF temperature monitoring probes (3M, Model 370 Temperature Monitoring System, St. Paul, MN) will be fixed on the skin of the left and right side of the forehead above the eyebrow before induction of anesthesia. These devices also measured core temperature every minute and displayed the values on two display screens. In addition a temperature-sensing indwelling urinary catheter (CovidienTM, Mon-a-ThermTM, Foly Catheter with temperature sensor 400TM) will be placed after induction of anesthesia to allow continuous drainage of urine and continuous measurement of body temperature.

Core temperatures measured by PAC, ZHF-thermometer and bladder thermometer will be recorded with an interval of 1 minute.

In all patients the core temperature are allowed to drop until going on CPB. There will be no no external warming or infusion warming before CPB. At initiation of CPB measurements will stop because during CPB core temperatures measured with PAC does not produce an accurate estimate of core temperature.
