Definition of normothermic

1 sense · 1 part of speech · etymology included

adj

  1. (not-comparable)Having a normal body temperature.
    “Perhaps a compromise between near normothermic temperatures and the typical 4°C perfusion would be best for clinical use. Here the warmer temperatures at midthermia (15–20°C) may promote metabolic repair but remain cool enough to suppress metabolism and slow reactions and flow rates so that machine automation can be practical for clinical use.”
    “In contrast to cold preservation, the concept of normothermic preservation is to maintain the cellular metabolism.”
