    Objective: To evaluate the evidence on the effectiveness of warming devices in the prevention and maintenance of temperature during inadvertent hypothermia in the perioperative period in surgical patients. Results: Fifty percent (n = 5/10) indicate the effectiveness of warming devices in preventing and maintaining temperature during inadvertent hypothermia in the peri- and postoperative period in surgical patients, while the other 50% (n = 5/10) show concordance but do not provide evidence of effectiveness as it was not measured. Conclusion: Half of the studies (5/10) indicate the effectiveness of warming devices in preventing and maintaining temperature during inadvertent hypothermia in the peri- and postoperative period in surgical patients. The remaining 5/10 indicate concordance with the use of warming devices in the prevention and maintenance of temperature during inadvertent hypothermia in the peri- and postoperative period in surgical patients.
