[Respiratory effects of moderate hypothermia (36 degrees C-28 degrees C) in dogs under halothane anesthesia].
Changes in systemic haemodynamic variables (mean arterial pressure, MAP; heart rate, HR; cardiac output, Qc), in oxygen consumption, VO2, and in ventilation (minute ventilation, V; respiratory frequency, f; tidal volume, VT; and arterial blood gases) with particular attention to respiratory times (duration of inspiration, TI; duration of expiration, TE; duration of the breathing cycle, TTOT), to respiratory timing (TI/TTOT) and respiratory drive (VT/TI) were studied during moderate progressive hypothermia (36 degrees C to 28 degrees C) during stable halothane anaesthesia (MAC = 1.5) in six dogs. MAP, HR and Qc decreased; V and f decreased, the decrease in f being correlated with that in temperature (r = 0.66; P < 0.01). Tidal volume did not change. The PaO2 and pHa decreased while PaCO2 increased slightly. The decrease in ventilation was related to changes in respiratory times (TI and TE) which increased (TE more than TI) and in respiratory drive (VT/TI which decreased due to the increase in TI). The relation between VT/TI and TI/TTOT changes was not constant during cooling. Changes in respiratory times and drive could be due to the effect of cold on medullar respiratory control.
