Associations of systemic oxygen consumption with age and body temperature under general anesthesia: retrospective cohort study.
Body temperature (BT) is thought to have associations with oxygen consumption (VO2). However, there have been few studies in which the association between systemic VO2 and BT in humans was investigated in a wide range of BTs. The aims of this study were 1) to determine the association between VO2 and age and 2) to determine the association between VO2 and BT. ⋯ VO2 increases in parallel with increase in body temperature in a hyperthermic state but remains constant in a hypothermic state. Neonates and infants, who have high VO2, may have a large systemic organ response in VO2 to change in BT.
