Temperature control in critically ill patients with a novel esophageal cooling device: a case series
BACKGROUND Mild hypothermia and fever control have been shown to improve neurological outcomes post cardiac arrest. Common methods to induce hypothermia include body surface cooling and intravascular cooling; however, a new approach using an esophageal cooling catheter has recently become available. METHODS We report the first three cases of temperature control using an esophageal cooling dev...
متن کاملAccuracy of core temperature measurement in deep hypothermic circulatory arrest.
Deep hypothermia is an effective technique for neuroprotection in cardiac surgery. However, standard body temperature measurement may deviate from actual brain temperature. Therefore, we simultaneously measured brain and core temperatures during neurosurgical interventions in hypothermic circulatory arrest to determine its accuracy. Between 1994 and May 2007, 26 patients (12 female, mean age 46...
متن کاملEndothermic freezing on heating and exothermic melting on cooling.
Generally, a liquid freezes exothermally on cooling and a crystal melts endothermally on heating. Here we report an opposite occurrence--a liquid's endothermic freezing on heating and the resulting crystal's exothermic melting on cooling at ambient pressures. C(p) decreases on freezing and increases on melting, and the equilibrium temperature meets the thermodynamic requirement. Melting on cool...
متن کاملCatalyst and Fuel Interactions to Optimize Endothermic Cooling
This report summarizes the main findings of an AFOSR Basic Research Initiative project in the area ofendothermic fuels catalysis. The focus was on developing improved catalysts to enhance and controlendothermic fuel reactions, to enhance cooling capacity for aircraft. In addition there was substantial basicmechanistic work, aimed at understanding processes responsible for catalytic ...
متن کاملA Novel Cooling Device for Targeted Brain Temperature Control and Therapeutic Hypothermia: Feasibility Study in an Animal Model
BACKGROUND Therapeutic hypothermia (i.e., temperature management) is an effective option for improving survival and neurological outcome after cardiac arrest and is potentially useful for the care of the critically ill neurological patient. We analyzed the feasibility of a device to control the temperature of the brain by controlling the temperature of the blood flowing through the neck. METH...
