Temperature (TEMP) with Hygrobac S or Thermovent HEPA placed at Site 1 or Site 2. TEMP was significantly higher when Hygrobac S (closed circle)(*p < 0.05) was placed at Site 1 than at Site 2, and when Thermovent HEPA (open circle) was (**p < 0.05) was placed at Site 1 than at Site 2. Patient N = 10. Data presented as mean ± SD.
