An exploratory study into the effects of a 20 minute crushed ice application on knee joint position sense during a small knee bend. [PDF]
Objectives The effect of cryotherapy on joint positioning presents conflicting debates as to whether individuals are at an increased risk of injury when returning to play or activity immediately following cryotherapy application at the knee.

Comparison of two fluid warming devices for maintaining body core temperature during living donor liver transplantation: Level 1 H-1000 vs. Fluid Management System 2000 [PDF]
BackgroundRapid fluid warming has been a cardinal measure to maintain normothermia during fluid resuscitation of hypovolemic patients. A previous laboratory simulation study with different fluid infusion rates showed that a fluid warmer using magnetic ...

Brief rewarming blunts hypothermia-induced alterations in sensation, motor drive and cognition
Background: It is well known that cold exposure experienced during occupational or recreational activities may adversely affect motor, cognitive performance and health. Most research has used prolonged passive external rewarming modalities and focused on

Post-TTM Rebound Pyrexia after Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury Results in Sterile Inflammation and Apoptosis in Cardiomyocytes [PDF]
Introduction. Fever is frequently observed after acute ischemic events and is associated with poor outcome and higher mortality. Targeted temperature management (TTM) is recommended for neuroprotection in comatose cardiac arrest survivors, but pyrexia ...

Use of Continuous Venovenous Haemodialysis to Reverse Acute Hypothermia After Multiple Trauma
Hypothermia is an independent risk factor for mortality in trauma patients. We describe the use of continuous venovenous haemodialysis (CVVHD) as a rewarming method in a hypothermic, multiply injured patient.

Rewarming for accidental hypothermia in an urban medical center using extracorporeal membrane oxygenation. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Accidental hypothermia complicated by cardiac arrest carries a high mortality rate in urban areas. For moderate hypothermia cases conventional rewarming methods are usually adequate, however in severe cases extracorporeal membrane oxygenation

Investigating postharvest chilling injury in tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) fruit using magnetic resonance imaging and 5-azacytidine, a hypomethylation agent [PDF]
Tomato, like most species from tropical and subtropical regions, exhibits postharvest chilling injury (PCI) when stored at low temperatures. Because of its economic importance and the functional genomics tools available, we used tomato to investigate ...

Characterization of injury in isolated rat proximal tubules during cold incubation and rewarming. [PDF]
Organ shortage leads to an increased utilization of marginal organs which are particularly sensitive to storage-associated damage. Cold incubation and rewarming-induced injury is iron-dependent in many cell types.
