Although peri-operative warming is well established for general operations, there is a dearth of literature regarding active warming of pregnant women undergoing caesarean section (CS). The National Institute of Health and Care Excellence (NICE) developed guidelines for managing IPH for adults undertaking various general operations, however pregnant women and children/infants were excluded from these guidelines due to lack of evidence supporting or rejecting the use of peri-operative active warming for this population. The two active warming methods recommended by NICE include the use of forced-air warming and fluid warmers. Specifically all patients should be actively warmed with a forced-air warming device before/during their operation if their temperature is below 36°C and every patient should receive warmed IV fluids (via an IV fluid warmer) for volumes ≥500 mls of IV fluids. The patient's temperatures should be measured every 30 minutes from the time of their anaesthesia until their discharge to the ward.
