Study Summary

The investigators will propose a randomized cross-over trial using a uniform and strongly balanced 4-period design in which will include four operations for each surgeon. Surgeons will be randomized to 1 of 4 sequences: ABBA, BAAB, AABB or BBAA. The design is "uniform" in that each treatment appears the same number of times within each sequence (uniform within sequence) and if each treatment appears the same number of times within each period (uniform within each period). It is strongly balanced with respect to first-order carryover effects because each treatment precedes every other treatment, including itself, the same number of times

Primary Outcome

Immediately after surgery, while still gowned, surgeons will rate their thermal comfort on a 0-10 Likert scale, with 0 representing extreme cold, 5 being thermal comfort, and 10 representing extreme heat. Two points on the 11-point Likert scale will be considered a clinically important difference.
