Note: Missing pages 11 and 55. / Hypothermia is proving its value in surgery through its ability to reduce the basal metabolism and oxygen requirements of the body tissues. This enables the tissues to withstand prolonged periods of total or partial ischemia without injury. The vascular supply to organs may thus be occluded, allowing the surgeon to work in a comparatively bloodless field with little danger of tissue damage due to anoxia.
