Successful fibrinolytic and therapeutic hypothermic management of cardiac arrest following massive pulmonary embolism [PDF]
Clinical and Experimental Emergency Medicine, 2015 Massive pulmonary embolism (MPE) with hemodynamic instability is a clinical condition with a poor prognosis and high mortality rates. There are no definitive treatment options for cardiac arrest due to MPE. A 52-year-old female presented at our emergency

Targeted temperature management for postcardiac arrest syndrome [PDF]
Journal of Neurocritical Care, 2020 Neurocritical care management to improve neurologic outcome for postcardiac arrest syndrome (PCAS) has focused considerably on targeted temperature management (TTM). TTM attenuates the destructive processes following ischemia/reperfusion in PCAS.

Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 1999 Hypoxia elicits hyperventilation and hypothermia, but the mechanisms involved are not well understood. The nitric oxide (NO) pathway is involved in hypoxia-induced hypothermia and hyperventilation, and works as a neuromodulator in the central nervous ...

Induced Hypothermia Does Not Harm Hemodynamics after Polytrauma: A Porcine Model
Mediators of Inflammation, 2015 Background. The deterioration of hemodynamics instantly endangers the patients’ life after polytrauma. As accidental hypothermia frequently occurs in polytrauma, therapeutic hypothermia still displays an ambivalent role as the impact on the ...

Randomized preclinical study of machine perfusion in vascularized composite allografts
BJS (British Journal of Surgery), EarlyView., 2020 This study was designed to identify the optimum machine perfusion parameters for preservation of limbs before transplantation, and determine whether this was better than cold storage. Normothermic machine perfusion at a pressure of 70 mmHg (NMP‐70) provided superior preservation to cold storage after transplantation.

Limited Therapeutic Time Windows of Mild-to-Moderate Hypothermia in a Focal Ischemia Model in Rat
Stroke Research and Treatment, 2011 Although many studies have shown the great potential of induced hypothermia in stroke treatment, we recognize that there are limitations to the protective effects of hypothermia even in the laboratory.

Characterization of N6-Cyclohexyladenosine-Induced Hypothermia in Syrian Hamsters
Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2005 The N6-cyclohexyladenosine (CHA)-induced hypothermia in Syrian hamsters was characterized as follows: intracerebroventricular injection of CHA-induced hypothermia and the potency was increased by lowering the ambient temperature.
