[The temperature changes in different organs during immersion hypothermia].
Abstract
Precise thermometry of the brain, liver, rectum, muscles and skin surface was performed in white rats in conditions of immersion of the body in water with the temperature 1 degree C. Breathing arrested within 15-18 min after immersion, their brain temperature being 16.7-18.2 degrees C, liver temperature 12.7-15.2 degrees C, rectum--10.4-15.5 degrees C, muscle 8.3-12.0 degrees C, skin surface--1.6-5.0 degrees C.
