使用红外热像仪对实际手术伤口温度进行了观察研究。本文介绍了程序、细节和一般结果。在标准手术室条件和标准手术室灯下，平均手术伤口温度约为85华氏度（29摄氏度）。在进一步调查之前，建议在未来的手术室气流研究中使用该标称值，包括实验研究和CFD模拟。引用:德克萨斯州达拉斯ASHRAE Transactions第119卷第1部分。

An observational study of actual surgical wound temperatures was undertaken using infrared thermography. The procedures, details, and general results are presented herein. Average surgical wound temperature was found to be around 85°F (29°C) in standard operating room conditions with standard operating room lights. Pending further investigation, this nominal value is recommended for use in future operating room air flow studies including experimental studies and CFD simulations.
