Brief Summary

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

As individuals age, they often enter a phase of increased "frailty." Elderly and frail patients represent a population that requires heightened sensitivity and close monitoring during surgical procedures. This study aims to investigate the relationship between the Hemoglobin-to-Red Blood Cell Distribution Width (Hb/RDW) ratio and perioperative hypothermia in elderly patients undergoing transurethral prostatectomy. This is an observational study. Preoperative blood test results and intraoperative body temperature measurements of the patients will be recorded in our data forms.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* Patients who provided informed consent.
* Patients scheduled for transurethral prostatectomy surgery.
* Patients classified as ASA-PS 1, 2, or 3.
* Male patients aged 65 years or older.
