Feb 4th, 2023 - Mild hypothermia, 32-35°C, reduces infarct size in experimental studies, potentially mediating reperfusion injuries, but human trials have been ambiguous. To elucidate the cardioprotective mechanisms of mild hypothermia, we analyzed cardiac perfor...

Feb 4th, 2023 - Rewarming is a recommended therapy during the resuscitation of hypothermic patients with hemorrhagic shock. In experimental models, however, it increases inflammatory response and mortality. Although microcirculation is potential target of inflamm...

Feb 2nd, 2023 - Therapeutic hypothermia in brain-dead organ donors has been shown to reduce delayed graft function in kidney recipients after transplantation. Data are needed on the effect of hypothermia as compared with machine perfusion on outcomes after kidney...

Feb 2nd, 2023 - Spreading depolarizations (SDs) have been linked to infarct volume expansion following ischemic stroke. Therapeutic hypothermia provides a neuroprotective effect after ischemic stroke. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of hypothermia on the ...

Feb 9th, 2022 - The aim of these guidelines is to provide evidence‑based guidance for temperature control in adults who are comatose after resuscitation from either in-hospital or out-of-hospital cardiac arrest, regardless of the underlying cardiac rhythm. These ...

Jan 23rd, 2020 - Severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) is associated with high rates of death and disability. As a result, the revised guidelines for the management of pediatric severe TBI address some of the previous gaps in pediatric TBI evidence and management st...

Nov 20th, 2019 - To provide guidance to clinicians, the Wilderness Medical Society convened an expert panel to develop evidence-based guidelines for the out-of-hospital evaluation and treatment of victims of accidental hypothermia. The guidelines present the main ...

Jan 30th, 2023 - Undesirable perioperative hypothermia (UPH) is a decrease in the core body temperature, expressed as the temperature of the blood and internal organs, below 36°C. UPH is an important complication of -anesthesia- and surgery and can occur during th...

Jan 30th, 2023 - Neonatal hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) refers to brain injury resulting from reduced blood and oxygen flow to a baby's brain near the time of birth. HIE affects up to 12,000 newborns each year in the U.S. Half of affected infants have a ba...
