[Effect of cooling therapy on the heart rate and mean arterial pressure of rats with the second-degree scald burn in hot and humid environment].
To observe the changes of heart rate (HR) and mean arterial pressure MAP after immediate cooling therapy (ICT) in rats with superficial second-degree scald burn in hot and humid environment, and assess the effect of the cooling dressing materials. ⋯ Cooling therapy does not affect MAP but efficiently decreases HR, which may prevent further heat injury.
