Summary
NICE has recently published an addendum to their guidance on Hypothermia: prevention and management in adults having surgery. The addendum to this guidance has added recommendations on patients with communication difficulties, measuring temperature, warming patients before induction of anaesthesia and warming patients after induction of anaesthesia (Sections 1.1, 1.2 and 1.3). As this guidance has previously been endorsed by the Department, comments are only being sought on the addendum.
