Thermal distribution, physiological effects and toxicities of extracorporeally induced whole ‐body hyperthermia in a pig model

ConclusionFast induction of eWBH with homogenous thermal distribution is feasible in pigs using the Vith èr WBH device. Severe hemodynamic disturbances, rhabdomyolysis, and hyperkalemia were observed.
