Following a clinical experience of 100 cardiac operation in infants durind deep hypothermia, as low as 15C, the authors have designed a new bath for the procedure which incorporates several improvements over those used previously. The device described allows continuous cooling or rewarming of the patient at any stage of the operation by addition of more cold or hot water as required. It is possible to operate with the patient prone or on the side at any level of hypothermia, and while using heart lung bypass. The construction facilitates the even distribution of the circulating water, and a thermostatic control allows the temperature to be fixed at any level required.
在经历了100例婴儿在低至15摄氏度的深度低温下进行心脏手术的临床实践后,作者设计了一种用于该手术的新型浴槽,它在多个方面对先前使用的浴槽进行了改进。所描述的装置能够在手术的任何阶段,根据需要添加更多冷水或热水,从而实现对患者的持续冷却或复温。在任何低温水平下,以及在使用心肺旁路时,患者可以俯卧或侧卧进行手术。其结构有助于循环水均匀分布,并且恒温控制可将温度设定在任何所需水平。
