Sep 15th, 2020 - Inadvertent perioperative hypothermia is a common complication of surgery, and active body surface warming (ABSW) systems are used to prevent adverse clinical outcomes. Prior data on certain outcomes are equivocal (ie, blood loss) or limited (ie, ...

Sep 14th, 2020 - This study aimed to explore comprehensively the biological function of curcumin, and its underlying mechanism, in protecting from necrotising microscopic colitis in newborn rats. A total of 20 normal healthy rats were selected, and a necrotising e...

Sep 13th, 2020 - Prolonged cardiac arrest (CA) may lead to neurologic deficit in survivors. Good outcome is especially rare when CA was unwitnessed. However, accidental hypothermia is a very specific cause of CA. Our goal was to describe the outcomes of patients w...

Nov 19th, 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 ...

Mar 31st, 2019 - Human body temperature is a highly variable vital sign and known to be influenced by several variables, most prominently the person’s age and the site of measurement. Our systematic review is the largest of its kind and provides clinicians with ev...

May 11th, 2017 - To assess the evidence and make evidence-based recommendations for acute interventions to reduce brain injury in adult patients who are comatose after successful cardiopulmonary resuscitation. Published literature from 1966 to August 29, 2016, was...

Sep 29th, 2015 - Canadian Guidelines for the use of targeted temperature management (therapeutic hypothermia) after cardiac arrest: A joint statement from The Canadian Critical Care Society (CCCS), Canadian Neurocritical Care Society (CNCCS), and the Canadian Crit...

Jul 6th, 2015 - Hyperthermia is a frequent complication in patients with acute ischemic stroke. On the other hand, therapeutically induced hypothermia has shown promising potential in animal models of focal cerebral ischemia. This Guideline Document presents the ...
