Several methods to administer systemic hyperthermia (41.8-42.0 degrees C) as an oncologic procedure have been described in the literature. We have developed a method to induce and maintain a body temperature of 42.0 degrees C (rectal) using a high-flow water immersion bath. This method was tested in a small series of sheep and proved to be applicable. In a preliminary clinical series of 10 treatment sessions advantages compared to the described other methods were noted. After a short induction period, accurate temperature control can be maintained. During the procedure the patient can be observed and handled, while buoyancy in water is an asset. Short term clinical were favourable.
文献中已描述了几种作为肿瘤治疗手段进行全身热疗（41.8 - 42.0摄氏度）的方法。我们开发了一种使用高流量水浸浴诱导并维持体温42.0摄氏度（直肠温度）的方法。该方法在一小群绵羊中进行了测试，证明是可行的。在10次治疗疗程的初步临床系列中，与其他已描述的方法相比，该方法的优势得以显现。经过短暂的诱导期后，可以维持精确的温度控制。在治疗过程中，可以对患者进行观察和处理，而水的浮力是一项有利条件。短期临床效果良好。
