“…Several studies have investigated the use of wrapping patients in blankets or towels, hot water bottles, infrared heat lamps, circulating warm water blankets or forced air warming blankets (Haskins 1981, Machon and others 1999, Matsuzaki and others 2003). Alongside these body surface warming methods, core warming (by peritoneal/pleural lavage or instillation of warm saline in the bladder) is described as being effective (Brunette and others 1987, Otto and Metzler 1988, Hall and Syverud 1990). The most effective surface warming methods seem to be circulating warm water blankets (Haskins 1981) and forced air warming blankets (Sessler and Moayeri 1990, Machon and others 1999).…”

“…Il lavaggio di alcune cavità, come stomaco e vescica, è descritto in pochi lavori e non ne è chiara l'efficacia 2 . Il lavaggio della cavità pleurica permette di usare grandi volumi, fino a 120 l/ora se vengono posizionati due drenaggi, uno in entrata al 2°spazio intercostale anteriormente e il secondo al 4°spazio a livello della ascellare posteriore 49,50 . È anche possibile utilizzare un unico spazio, ma in questo caso il liquido va fatto permanere all'interno del cavo pleurico per circa 20 minuti.…”

“…Sterile normal saline ideally in 3 liter bags is heated to 40 to 42°C and infused and drained. 63 The efficiency of heat transfer varies with the flow rate and dwell times. Pleural adhesions can prevent adequate drainage, which must be ensured to prevent intrathoracic hypertension.…”
