The Effect of Sock Developed with Wearable Technology for TUR Surgery Patients on Hypothermia and Venous Thromboembolism

The aim of this study is to examine the effect of the sock to be developed with wearable technology for patients who will undergo TUR surgery on the development of hypothermia and VTE. The population of the study will consist of patients who will undergo TUR surgery between 01 October 2023 and 01 October 2024. patients will be included in the study. The study was planned as a prospective, two-arm (1:1), randomised controlled, double-blind clinical trial. The data will be collected with the "Descriptive Characteristics Form" and "Hypothermia Monitoring Form". The hypothermia follow-up form includes "Shivering Level Diagnosis Form" and "Temperature Comfort Perception Scale" The descriptive variables of the patients included in the study will be expressed as mean ± standard deviation and median (maximum-minimum), percentage and frequency. In data analysis; dependent and independent t test will be used when parametric test preconditions are met. Changes in body temperature measurements obtained after wearing socks to be developed with wearable technology, repeated measurements, analysis of variance (Repeated ANOVA) if parametric, Friedman test if non-parametric, and post-hoc test will be used in intra-group multiple comparison analyses as further analysis. Post hoc power analysis will be performed after the sample size reaches 70.
