This study was carried out on 17 burned patients. Metabolic heat production, rectal and skin temperatures, and heat exchanges by R+C were measured. It was found that R+C heat loss takes into account 60 to 80% of the increased metabolic heat production. Two methods were used to measure R+C heat loss: calculation by indirect calorimetry and direct measurements by using heat flow discs. The direct relationship which exists between the results of these two methods showed the reliability of the use of heat flow discs for measuring R+C heat loss. This fast-responding techniques may allow the elaboration of a thermal setting system which could modulate ambient air temperature, thus limiting exagerated heat loss due to the skin lesions.
本研究对17例烧伤患者进行。测量了代谢产热、直肠温度和皮肤温度,以及辐射+对流的热交换。结果发现,辐射+对流散热占代谢产热增加量的60%至80%。采用两种方法测量辐射+对流散热:间接量热法计算和使用热流盘直接测量。这两种方法结果之间的直接关系表明了使用热流盘测量辐射+对流散热的可靠性。这种快速响应技术可能有助于开发一种热调节系统,该系统可以调节环境空气温度,从而限制因皮肤损伤导致的过度散热。
