Temperature (°C) during the cooling-rewarming period
Baseline | 3 hours | 6 hours | After rewarming | |
---|---|---|---|---|
Values are mean (SD) (n = 6). NB After rewarming the water in the cap was not circulating. There was no significant difference in the size of the Trectal to Tdeep brain gradient throughout these periods. | ||||
