Should not inform clinical hypothermia protocols; leaves open species-specific cardiorespiratory adaptations for mechanistic study.
Hibernators (hamsters) and non-hibernators (rats) exhibit distinct cardiorespiratory responses to acute cooling, suggesting reduced cardiorespiratory coupling in hibernators.
Deveci et al. (2007) studied this question.
