Cutaneous heat loss in children during anaesthesia.
We have measured non-evaporative, cutaneous heat loss using heat flux transducers at eight skin sites in five children during anaesthesia and compared the data with basal metabolic heat production. The effect of disposable surgical covering and a radiant heater on heat flux was examined. The mean total heat flow rate before draping was 3-9 W higher than the basal metabolic rate after induction ...
متن کاملHumidification and loss of body heat during anaesthesia. II: Effects in surgical patients.
Changes in temperature and body heat were measured in 30 patients. Despite the warming of most fluids given intravenously, all the patients ventilated with dry anaesthetic gases became cooler, with an average heat loss of 12.4 kilocalories per hour. In a group to whom the gases were delivered saturated at body temperature, the average hourly loss was 1.5 kilocalories. This difference is in agre...
متن کاملHeat loss during thoracotomy. A preliminary report.
We became interested in the subject of heat loss after reading the work of Benzinger (1967), Roe, Goldberg, Blair, and Kinney (1966) and Cuthbertson, Smith, and Tillstone (1968). Benzinger (1967) from Bethesda has established a quantitative relationship between a fall in body temperature and a rise in metabolic rate. He has summarized some of his findings in a graph which is reproduced in Figur...
متن کاملBlood loss during Caesarean section under general anaesthesia.
Blood loss during Caesarean section has been measured in 121 patients using a haemoglobin dilution method. The results have been analyzed in an attempt to determine the importance on blood loss of age, parity, previous Caesarean section, placental site, size of baby, length of operation, and surgical experience. The only statistically significant factors increasing blood loss were (a) multipara...
متن کاملCrisis management during anaesthesia: awareness and anaesthesia.
BACKGROUND Patient awareness during general anaesthesia has considerable potential for severe emotional distress in the patient as well as professional, personal, and financial consequences for the anaesthetist. OBJECTIVES To examine the role of a previously described core algorithm "COVER ABCD-A SWIFT CHECK", supplemented by a specific sub-algorithm for awareness, in the detection and manage...
