The antiinflammatory effects of propofol in endotoxemic rats during moderate and mild hypothermia.
We previously found that propofol attenuated the mortality rate and inflammatory responses during endotoxemia in rats; however, whether propofol retains its antiinflammatory effects during hypothermia has not been determined. We investigated the effects of propofol on endotoxemic rats subjected to moderate or mild hypothermia. ⋯ During hypothermia, propofol administration does not have additive beneficial antiinflammatory effects.
