The Cоmpаrisоn оf Two Recovery Room Wаrming Methods for Hypothermiа Patients Who had Undergone Spine Surgery (Su et al., 2016) Purpose: The purpose of this study was to compare the time needed to reach a specified temperature and the efficiency of two warming methods- warm cotton blankets and a radiant warmer-for hypothermia patients in a post-anesthetic unit (PACU) after spinal surgery. Design: Prospective data were collected from a medical referral center in northern Taiwan. A total of 130 post-spinal surgery patients with hypothermia were recruited for the study. Methods: Of the 130 patients in the PACU, 65 were warmed by the radiant warmer (group R); whereas the other 65 patients were warmed by cotton blankets (Group B). Participants were not randomly assigned into these groups. Tympanic temperatures were measured for each patient every ten minutes until it reached 36 degrees C in the PACU. Statistical analysis of covariance and regression analysis were performed to compare the time needed to reach a specific temperature and the efficiency of the two warming methods respectively. Findings: Both groups were similar in their baseline characteristics. The level of significance for the study was set at p = .05. After adjusting for temperature upon arrival at the PACU, group R needed a significantly shorter time for rewarming to 36 degrees C than group B (p
