Claim:
1. An anaesthetic apparatus arranged for the delivery of anaesthesia to a patient, the apparatus comprising: a conduit for delivering a gas including anaesthetic to a patient, wherein the conduit comprises a heating arrangement arranged to heat the gas within the conduit, a first temperature sensor arranged to sense temperature of the gas at a breathing orifice of a patient when a patient is connected to the apparatus, a second temperature sensor arranged to sense the actual bodily temperature of the patient, and a controller arranged to receive from the first temperature sensor the sensed temperature of the gas at the breathing orifice of the patient and receive from the second temperature sensor the sensed temperature of the patient, the controller being configured to regulate the heating arrangement for heating the gas to warm the patient to regulate the patient's temperature based on the sensed temperature of the gas and the sensed actual bodily temperature of the patient.
