Abstract
Trained dogs were given by diathermy measured heat dosages equal to 1, 2, and 3 times their b.m.r. at 30-31[degree] room temp., 50% humidity. Alkalosis developed with 2 b.m.r. in one dog, 3 b.m.r. in another, but with none of the 3-hr. treatments in a 3d. 1 b.m.r. gave blood dilution, 2 b.m.r. dilution followed by conc. 3 b.m.r. conc. only (hematocrit). The increases in ventilation rate varied from 2- to 10-fold (average 5-fold).This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
