Summary:Background:Patient hypothermia is a critical nursing problem in the preoperative room. Applying an appropriate temperature control strategy prior to surgery helps patients maintain body temperature and physical comfort.Purpose:This project assessed the temperature effects of a coat warming strategy on preoperative patients.Methods:This quasi-experimental study invited 60 participants who were divided into two groups, namely an experimental group (n = 30) that used a coat temperature control strategy and a control group (n = 30) that used a routine strategy. We analyzed changes in patient-perceived temperature, auricular temperature, skin color at the distal end of extremities, and Dali lithosporic at the upper arm. Measurements were taken once at pretest and at 5 and 10 minutes after intervention.Results:Compared with the control group, experimental group patients reported feeling significantly less cold (p < .001, 5 minutes after intervention; p = .001) and had lower Dali lithosporic (p < .001, 5 minutes aft
