Induced Hypothermia Does Not Harm Hemodynamics after Polytrauma: A Porcine Model

open access: yesMediators 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 ...

Acute Physiologic and Chronic Health Examination II and Sequential Organ Failure Assessment Scores for Predicting Outcomes of Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest Patients Treated with Therapeutic Hypothermia [PDF]

open access: yesKorean Journal of Critical Care Medicine, 2014
BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to assess the relationship between acute physiologic and chronic health examination (APACHE) II and sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) scores and outcomes of post-cardiac arrest patients treated with ...

Cortical organotypic slice cultures as a tool to analyze the neurovascular unit in hypoxia/ischemia and hypothermia-induced neuroprotection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Neurons and glial cells of the central nervous system (CNS) communicate and work together to function and execute an array of complex tasks. In addition to them a third cell type which also works to keep the brain alive are the cerebral endothelial cells

Pilot randomized trial of therapeutic hypothermia with serial cranial ultrasound and 18-22 month follow-up for neonatal encephalopathy in a low resource hospital setting in Uganda: study protocol [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Background: There is now convincing evidence that in industrialized countries therapeutic hypothermia for perinatal asphyxial encephalopathy increases survival with normal neurological function. However, the greatest burden of perinatal asphyxia falls in

Short-duration hypothermia completed prior to reperfusion prevents intracranial pressure elevation following ischaemic stroke in rats [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Reperfusion therapies re-establish blood flow after arterial occlusion and improve outcome for ischaemic stroke patients. Intracranial pressure (ICP) elevation occurs 18–24 h after experimental stroke.

Limited Therapeutic Time Windows of Mild-to-Moderate Hypothermia in a Focal Ischemia Model in Rat

open access: yesStroke 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

open access: yesJournal 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.

Mild hypothermia does not attenuate platelet aggregation and may even increase ADP-stimulated platelet aggregation after clopidogrel treatment

open access: yesThrombosis Journal, 2009
Background Mild hypothermia is currently standard of care for cardiac arrest patients in many hospitals and a common belief is that hypothermia attenuates platelet aggregation.

Targeted temperature management in neurointensive care

open access: yesChinese Journal of Contemporary Neurology and Neurosurgery, 2023
The clinical prognosis of acute severe brain injury is poor, and therapeutic hypothermia in targeted temperature management (TTM) is considered to be one of the most effective neuroprotective methods, which might effectively improve the prognosis of ...
