Cesarean Section Complications

Brief summary

It is not known which is better for intraoperative temperature protection, warming matress or preoperative oral functional drinks in elective cesarean section. We plan to conduct a non inferiority randomized trial to clarify this problem.

Interventions

OTHEROral energy drinks

Patients drank energy drinks (Red Bull®) 250ml about 2-2.5 hours before operation.

DEVICEWarming matress

From the end of anesthesia, warming matriss at 40 ℃ was used to keep warm until the end of surgery.
