The design of normo-hypothermia devices prevents the circuit water and the patient's blood from coming into contact, but the circuit is not hermetic. In addition, the device has cooling ventilators that produce a flow of air through grilles located in its frame (<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#fig0005">Fig. 1</a>).</p><elsevierMultimedia ident="fig0005"></elsevierMultimedia><p id="par0030" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The water temperature may range between 2 and 41<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>°<span class="elsevierStyleSmallCaps">C</span> during surgery.

Indirect evidence of the association between contaminated air in the operating room and the infection was established by an experimental study conducted in a laminar flow operating theatre by Sommerstein et al.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0305"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">12</span></a> to demonstrate that the air current generated by the normo-hypothermia device's ventilator interfered with the operating room's air flow and caused an increase in the concentration of particles in the operation site, especially when the air expelled by the ventilator was facing the operation site.
