Therapeutic Hypothermia and Temperature Management.
The only peer-reviewed journal exploring all aspects of this innovative new technology for critical care situations. The Journal provides a multidisciplinary forum to ensure that therapeutic hypothermia is well understood and used to improve patient outcomes in cardiac arrest, traumatic brain and spinal cord injury, stroke, myocardial ischemia, and other emergency situations.
متن کاملHypothermia improves oral and gastric mucosal oxygenation during hypoxic challenges.
BACKGROUND Therapeutic hypothermia, used primarily for protective effects after hypoxia, improves oral and gastric mucosal microvascular oxygenation (μHbO₂) during additional haemorrhage. Therefore, we questioned whether hypothermia likewise improves μHbO₂ during hypoxic challenges. Since both hypothermia and hypoxia reduce cardiac output (e.g. by myofilament Ca(2+) desensitization), and modula...
متن کاملUrban hypothermia: preferred temperature and thermal perception in old age.
A study of 17 elderly men and 13 young adults of similar body build and wearing equivalent clothing insulation (0.8 clo) showed that when given control over their environment the elderly preferred the same mean comfort temperature (22-23 degrees C) but manipulated ambient temperature much less precisely than the young. Slow adjustment of ambient temperature was related to some cases to a higher...
متن کاملAccidental hypothermia and impaired temperature homoeostasis in the elderly.
A longitudinal study of the age-related decline in thermoregulatory capacity was made in 47 elderly people to try to identify those at risk from spontaneous hypothermia. During the winters of 1971-2 and 1975-6 environmental and body temperature profiles were obtained in the home, and thermoregulatory function was investigated by cooling and warming tests. Environmental temperature and socioecon...
متن کاملVariability in Glycemic Control with Temperature Transitions during Therapeutic Hypothermia
PURPOSE Patients treated with therapeutic hypothermia (TH) and continuous insulin may be at increased risk of hyperglycemia or hypoglycemia, particularly during temperature transitions. This study aimed to evaluate frequency of glucose excursions during each phase of TH and to characterize glycemic control patterns in relation to survival. METHODS Patients admitted to a tertiary care hospital...
