Article - Well Beyond Patient Pallets
 
There was a time when the only difference between a surgical table and a dining room table was the time of day it was being used or the urgency with which a patient required treatment. In the early days of surgery, it was not uncommon for a surgeon to treat patients in his own home, or in the patient’s home if necessary.

Article - Tools For Temperature Management
 
The importance of managing patient temperature before, after, and during surgery has been well known for quite some time. Patients undergoing certain cardiac and neurological procedures have been found to benefit from having their core temperature lowered during the procedure, but in almost all other cases the maintenance of normothermia in patients intra-operatively and post-operatively has resulted in dramatically improved patient outcomes.
