    Area of Science:

    • Pediatric Surgery
    • Anesthesiology
    • Neonatology

    Background:

    • Prolonged cystoscopy in infants poses a risk of hypothermia.
    • Infants are susceptible to rapid body temperature changes.
    • Maintaining core temperature is vital for pediatric surgical patients.

    Observation:

    • Two cases of infant hypothermia during prolonged cystoscopy were reported.
    • Core temperature decreased significantly when room temperature water was used for bladder irrigation in dogs.
    • Factors predisposing infants to hypothermia were reviewed.

    Findings:

    • Hypothermia is a significant risk during prolonged infant cystoscopy.
    • Room temperature irrigation fluids can cause a dangerous drop in core body temperature.
