What this trial studies

This study evaluates the impact of heated sock application on preventing hypothermia and its effects on vital signs in patients undergoing bladder tumor surgery. It aims to gather data on how this intervention can mitigate heat loss during surgical procedures, which is crucial for patient safety and recovery. The study will involve patients who meet specific eligibility criteria and will assess the outcomes of using heated socks before and during surgery.
