Abstract: PURPOSE: To study the effect of different thermal insulation measures on the recovery from general anesthesia in patients with head and neck tumor. METHODS: One hundred and twenty-five patients with head and neck tumor under general anesthesia from October 2017 to October 2018 were selected. According to the thermal insulation measures used during operation, the patients were divided into four groups: normal temperature group (group A, 31 patients), thermal insulation blanket group(group B, 36 patients), liquid heating meter group (group C, 32 patients) and integrated group (group D, 26 patients). Changes in blood pressure, body temperature, heart rate,extubation time, conscious recovery time and incidence of complication were compared among the four groups. The data were analyzed using GraphPad Prism 5 software package. RESULTS: During the recovery phase, changes in body temperature, heart rate and blood pressure were significantly lower in group B, C and D than in group A, and lowest in group D (P﹤0.05). Extubation time and recovery time was significantly lower in group B, C and D than in group A, and lowest in group D (P﹤0.05). The incidence of complications was significantly lower in group B, C and D than in group A, and lowest in group D (P﹤0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Thermal insulation measures, especially integrated thermal insulation, can significantly improve the quality of anesthesia recovery, reduce the incidence of complications and improve the safety of anesthesia recovery.
