Protocol summary

Study aim
Determination of the effect of irrigation fluid temperature on hypothermia and other intraoperative and postoperative outcomes in patients undergoing transurethral resection of prostate (TURP) under spinal anesthesia
Design
Phase 3 clinical trial with control group, with parallel groups, double-blind, randomized by block randomization method with blocks of size 4 with a ratio of 1 to 1 (as two groups A and B), with a sample size of 76 patients
Settings and conduct
The study will be performed in the urology operating room of Razi Hospital in Rasht. The study will be double blind in which neither the patient nor the researcher responsible for completing the questionnaires is aware of the type of serum allocated to surgery.

Randomized
Randomization description
Block randomization with blocks of size 4 with a ratio of 1 to 1 (as two groups A and B) via a online program named sealed envelop/randomisation
Blinding (investigator's opinion)
Double blinded
Blinding description
One of the researchers (anesthesia resident) will allocate serums to patients in two groups A (serum at room temperature) and B (serum heated to body temperature 37 degrees) based on a table prepared from random blocks. Neither the patient nor the evaluator is aware of the type of serum assigned to the surgery. At the top of the checklist which be completed for each patient, the group type (A or B) will be recorded.
