The purpose to this letter to the Editor is to describe |
|
the results of pilot studies conducted to evaluate body |
|
cooling by water immersion, with and without nicotinic |
|
acid. Nicotinic acid pretreatments resulted in greater |
|
body cooling than control trials. However, cooling rates |
|
were less than can be achieved with evaporative cooling |
|
techniques. The striking feature of the nicotinic acid |
|
trials involved the magnitude of body cooling achieved in |
|
relatively temperate water (30 C). Keywords: Hypothermia, |
|
Heat stroke, Rectal temperature. |
