  1. 1. Aspects of neonatal intensive care and anesthesia : Thermal balance and respiratory management

    Author : Victoria Karlsson; Johan Ågren; Lena Hellström-Westas; Filip Fredén; Valeria Perez de Sa; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Neonatal; anesthesia; kangaroo-mother-care; skin-to-skin care; carbon dioxide;

    Abstract : This thesis is based on four articles originating from three studies conducted in the neonatal intensive care unit and the children’s operating deparment at Uppsala University Hospital, Sweden.The overall aim was to obtain new knowledge about thermal balance and care environment in extremely preterm infants during skin-to-skin care (SSC), evaluate different methods of intraoperative monitoring of carbon dioxide (CO2), and to investigate how different levels of inhaled oxygen affect infants’ oxygenation during anesthesia and surgery.

  2. 2. Evaluation of carbon dioxide insufflation into the open surgical wound : influence on wound temperature, core temperature, and postoperative outcome

    Author : Joana Frey; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Introduction: When the internal organ tissues are abruptly exposed to the relative cold and dry ambient air during open surgery, body heat is lost through radiation, evaporation, and convection. Also general and neuraxial anesthesia contributes to a decrease in core temperature, mainly due to a shift of the threshold for thermoregulatory defense mechanism toward lower temperatures. READ MORE
