Abstract：Objective To compare the difference among the bladder temperature (BT), axillary temperature (AT) and nasopharynx temperature (NT) in the craniotomy in order to explore the possibility of replacing each other. Methods Thirty patients undergoing craniotomy were under general anesthesia selected. The intraoprative BT, AT and NT were monitored during anesthesia and they were recorded 10 minutes after the beginning of monitoring, at the beginning of the operation and every 20 minutes after the operation until the end of the operation in the 30 patients. BT and AT were compared with NT respectively. Results The mean value of the difference between BT and NT was (0.17±0.13)℃(P<0.01), the 95% confidence interval was-0.07~0.42. The correlation coefficient is 0.97, and the linear equation is: Y=0.94X+1. 96 (Y is BT and X is NT). The mean value of the difference between NT and AT was (0.25±0.23 )℃(P<0.01), the 95% confidence interval was-0.21~0.69, and 8.1% (26/319)data were outside the confidence interval. The correlation coefficient is 0.85, and the linear equation is: Y=0.91X+3. 64 (Y is AT and X is NT). Conclusions The consistency and correlatvity of the BT with NT are good, and they may be replaced each other in craniotomy. The consistency and correlativity of AT with NT are slightly worse, and they may be used as alternative ones.
