Brief summary
Controlling hypothermia is essential in anesthesia to limit postoperative complications. Temperature monitoring is therefore essential. However, the reliability of esophageal temperature during open chest lung surgery is discussed and not accurately assessed in the literature.
Detailed description
Controlling hypothermia is essential in anesthesia to limit postoperative complications. Temperature monitoring is therefore essential. However, the reliability of esophageal temperature during open chest lung surgery is discussed and not accurately assessed in the literature. The investigators therefore decided to evaluate the reliability of the oesophageal temperature in open chest lung surgery by comparing it to the continuous tympanic temperature.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Correlation between tympanic and oesophageal temperature. | up to 1 day (during the surgery) | Evaluate the correlation existing between the tympanic temperature, reflection of the central temperature without variation with an open thorax, and oesophageal temperature subject to changes. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Difference of correlation between tympanic and oesophageal temperature during left and right thoracotomy. | up to 1day (during the surgery) | Evaluate the correlation existing between the tympanic temperature, reflection of the central temperature without variation with an open thorax, and oesophageal temperature subject to changes. |
