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 کاملCalculation of mean skin temperature and changes in body heat content during paediatric anaesthesia.
Mean skin temperature and changes in body heat content were calculated in several different ways from measurements made in five children during operation. Mean skin temperatures were calculated from 162 sets of measurements using 15, 12, eight, seven and four skin sites with various formulae modified according to age. The results of other formulae were compared with age-adjusted, area-weighted ...
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 کاملVertical Redistribution of Oceanic Heat Content
Estimated values of recent oceanic heat uptake are on the order of a few tenths of a Wm, and are a very small residual of air–sea exchanges, with annual average regional magnitudes of hundreds of Wm. Using a dynamically consistent state estimate, the redistribution of heat within the ocean is calculated over a 20-yr period. The 20-yr mean vertical heat flux shows strong variations in both the l...
متن کاملBody temperature and anaesthesia.
The velocity of enzyme catalysed reactions increases with temperature to a maximum beyond which enzyme activity decreases because of protein denaturation. Many biological reactions have a 10 °C temperature coefficient (Qi0) of 2; that is, their rate of reaction doubles for a 10 °C temperature increase [62]. In mammals, protein denaturation begins at about 42 °C and internal temperatures at or a...
