Air delivered to the cats by the FAWB was warmed to approximately 43\u00b0C. Each trial lasted 90 minutes and was divided into two consecutive 45\u2010minute periods, during which the FAWB was activated or inactivated thus creating four treatment trials: off\/off, on\/off, on\/on, off\/on. Measurements of body temperature from the caudal esophagus, deep rectum, toe\u2010web, and tympanic membrane were recorded at regular intervals throughout each trial and compared.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Results\u2014<\/jats:bold>A steady decline in body temperature was observed throughout each trial. Mean body temperature in the cats receiving continual skin surface warming (on\/on) was significantly higher than in those receiving no active warming (off\/off) and those receiving delayed warming (off\/on), from 45 minutes onwards. By 90 minutes, the mean body temperature of cats warmed continuously was 0.9\u00b0C higher than in those with no active warming. Notable differences in body temperature were detected between all measurement sites, with the exception of esophagus versus rectum. Rectal and esophageal temperatures did not differ at any time point. Tympanic membrane temperatures measured with either device were lower than esophageal temperatures.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Conclusions\u2014<\/jats:bold>The modified FAWB was effective in minimizing the degree of hypothermia experienced in cats anesthetized with halothane for 90 minutes.
