Surkov. Temperature and neonatal hypoxic-ischemic encefalopathy 1 Key points Therapeutic hypothermia or targeted temperature management has been shown to improve outcome after perinatal asphyxia in large clinical trials. Controlled cooling has become the standard of care for newborns with hypoxicischemic encephalopathy but preference of its method still remains controversial. The efficacy and s...

Passive solar design is an economical way of using solar energy in buildings. The thermal behavior of the buildings within its environment over a period of time can easily be predicted using accurate and simple analytical tools. This provides designers the information necessary to satisfy the occupant’s needs, reduce peak cooling/heating power demands, reduce the size of air conditioning/heatin...

Core body temperature cooling during avalanche burial results in hypothermia, and further core temperature cooling during extrication and evacuation of an avalanche burial victim may result in more severe hypothermia. We performed two studies measuring the rate of core body temperature cooling during snow burial and after extrication from snow burial. Subjects were completely buried in a large ...
