Effects of hypothermia and hypothermia combined with hypocapnia on cerebral tissue oxygenation in piglets.
Hypothermia and its combination with hypocapnia are frequently associated with anesthesia. ⋯ The hypothermia-induced reduction in oxygen delivery was compensated by lowered metabolic demand. However, hypothermia was not able to compensate for an additional reduction in oxygen delivery caused by simultaneous hypocapnia. This resulted in a PtO2 drop, which was not reflected by a downshift in rSO2 .
