[Hazards of therapeutic hypothermia].

open access: yesAnnales francaises d'anesthesie et de reanimation, 2009
Therapeutic hypothermia (less than 35 degrees C) is a promising strategy to improve neuroprotection after severe brain injury. Except in patients resuscitated from cardiac arrest, its effectiveness has not yet been demonstrated. Therapeutic hypothermia results in various side effects, including cardiovascular, hydroelectrolytic and infectious disorders,

Therapeutic hypothermia

Emergency Nurse, 2012
There is growing evidence to support the use of mild therapeutic hypothermia (MTH), also known as targeted temperature management, in out-of-hospital patients who have experienced cardiac arrest. Reducing core body temperatures to 32-34°C can reduce mortality and neurological disability significantly among such patients, but recent surveys have shown ...

Therapeutic Hypothermia in STEMI

Cardiovascular Revascularization Medicine, 2021
In this review article we tried to find an answer to the question, should local coronary hypothermia be a part of the early reperfusion strategy in patients with STEMI to prevent reperfusion injury, no-reflow phenomenon, and to reduce the infarct size and mortality. Hypothermia can save cardiomyocytes if achieved in a timely fashion before reperfusion.

Therapeutic hypothermia

Best Practice & Research Clinical Anaesthesiology, 2003
Hypothermia is common during anaesthesia and surgery owing to anaesthetic-induced inhibition of thermoregulatory control. Perioperative hypothermia is associated with numerous complications. However, for certain patient populations, and under specific clinical conditions, hypothermia can provide substantial benefits.

Therapeutic Hypothermia for Neuroprotection

Emergency Medicine Clinics of North America, 2009
This review briefly discusses induced therapeutic hypothermia (TH), which represents the intentional induction of a lowered core body temperature of 35 degrees C or less. The focus is on resuscitative or postarrest hypothermia, the data that support it, and the practical issues pertaining to TH implementation.

THERAPEUTIC HYPOTHERMIA IN TRAUMATOLOGY

Surgical Clinics of North America, 1999
Despite its proven clinical application for protection-preservation of the brain and heart during cardiac surgery, hypothermia research has fallen in and out of favor many times since its inception. Since the 1980s, there has been renewed research and clinical interest in therapeutic hypothermia for resuscitation of the brain after cardiac arrest or ...

Therapeutic Hypothermia

Chest, 2008
The use of therapeutic hypothermia has been shown to improve survival and neurological outcome following cardiac arrest. Patients with traumatic brain injury or ischemic stroke also responded positively to therapeutic hypothermia, which may be induced by various procedures including surface cooling, endovascular cooling catheter and cold infusion ...

Understanding therapeutic hypothermia

JAAPA, 2017
ABSTRACT Therapeutic hypothermia is a relatively new protocol that can improve patients' chances of favorable neurologic outcomes after cardiac arrest. However, implementation rates remain low nationwide. This article describes recommendations for and benefits of therapeutic hypothermia in postresuscitation care.
