What the experts said
The study was published in the Journal of Pediatric Surgery
The objective was to determine whether intraoperative change in body temperature is associated with postoperative infections in infants
885 patients younger than six months who underwent different types of operations during a two-year period were retrospectively reviewed
Hyperthermia was defined as body temperature higher than or equal to 38 degrees Celsius at any time during the case or immediately after the operation
Hyperthermia was associated with a high odds ratio of developing surgical site infections within 30 days of surgery
