Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the effect of various rewarming regimes on rectal temperature and hemodynamic parameters of dogs after open abdominal injury and seawater immersion. Method 30 healthy dogs were subjected to open abdominal injury and 2-hour seawater immersion. Then dogs were divided into three groups: group A (n=10) received no special warming treatment, in group B(n=10) electric blanket was used to warm up to 42℃, in group C (n=10) animals were warmed by 1/3 saline solution in 42℃ for 20 minutes and continuous perfusion of the abdominal cavity with 1/2 saline solution for 2 hours. The changes in body temperature, heart rate, MAP, CVP and CO were observed before and after rescue. Results The results of group A were not satisfactory. The rectal temperature, MAP, HR and CO were not recovered to normal after 6 hours of treatment. and the rectal temperature was 34.8℃ after 6 hours. The rectal temperature rose to 36.9℃ after being rewarmed with an electric blanket in group B. The result was better than that of group A. But there was tachycardia. The effects of rewarming from hypothermia in group C was satisfied. All hemodynamic parameters and rectal temperature recovered after 4 hours treatment. Conclusion Cold seawater immersion after open abdominal injury would result to hypothermia, and intra-corporeal rewarming should be the optional treatment.
