In addition, amino acids infused before anaesthesia were found to induce a supranormal production and accumulation of heat at emergence from anaesthesia, and thereby also prevented post-operative hypothermia [S].

...Steven M. Frank; Nader El-Gamal; Srinivasa N. Raja; Peter K. Wu; Osama Afifi 1. Although α-adrenoceptor antagonists have been shown to induce core hypothermia in animals, it is unclear whether the primary mechanism is increased heat loss or decreased heat production. Furthermore, studies have...

..., without shivering, rapidly returned to normothermia, whereas in the control patients the oxygen uptake remained slightly below the pre-anaesthesia level, despite sustained hypothermia and vigorous shivering. 5. It is concluded that general anaesthesia augments five-fold the thermic effect of amino acids...

Thus the reduction in renal blood flow during hypothermia is not due simply to the fall in mean arterial blood pressure. 3. Similarities between recordings of renal...
