Popis: Purpose: The pediatric age group is a risk group for Inadvertent perioperative hypothermia (IPH) due to insufficient subcutane-ous adipose tissue and underdeveloped thermoregulatory responses. We aimed to determine the frequency of IPH in the pediatric age group undergoing laparoscopic surgery. Materials and Methods: The study is prospective observational. Pediatric patients (1-18 years old) who underwent laparoscopic surgery under general anesthesia were evaluated. The tympanic membrane temperature measurements of the patients (°C) were recorded before anesthesia induction (T0) and then every 15 minutes during the surgery. Results: A total of 100 patients were evaluated. The frequency of inadvertent perioperative hypothermia was detected as 13(13%). The frequency of IPH in elective surgery patients was higher than in emergency surgery (
