Abstract:
Studies of the systemic circulation in dogs (n = 5) during hypothermia showed that cardiac output, mean arterial pressure, total peripheral resistance, pulse rate, work L. V. is reduced and the stroke volume is increased. The authors think that these effects are probably due to metabolic alterations during hypothermia.
