No results posted yet for this study

Summary

An esophageal heat exchange tube will be inserted in anesthetized surgical patients. Each patient will have 30 minutes of cooling (circulating fluid at 7 degrees C) and 30 minutes of warming (42 degrees C) with 15-minute recovery break in between. The primary outcome will be heat transfer, determined from inflow and outflow temperatures and fluid flow rate for cooling and warming modes.
