If during hypothermia septical shock occurs is it the reason to discontinuate hypothermia?

I am not sure of specific guidelines for this point but maybe we can draw from the recommendation in the TOBY guidelines :

"Cooling may produce adverse respiratory or cardiovascular effects and should be used with caution in infants with an unstable respiratory or cardiovascular condition."
