Objective: To assess the impact of mild hypothermia on the distribution and elimination of an IV crystalloid fluid bolus in healthy anesthetized cats using volume kinetic (VK) analysis.

Methods: 10 adult cats were anesthetized and included in a prospective, randomized, cross-over study. The subjects were maintained either normothermic (38.

Objectives: Data describing hypothermic cardiac arrest (HCA) outcomes predominantly originate from patients involved in wilderness accidents. We describe the incidence and outcomes of HCA in an urban environment, with a subgroup analysis of patients with witnessed HCA in the prehospital or emergency department (ED) setting.

Methods: We completed a retrospective, single center cohort analysis of consecutive adult patients with environmental exposure and core body temperature ≤ 32 °C.

Rationale: Cardiac arrest (CA) is an acute emergency with high mortality and is closely associated with the risk of brain damage or systemic ischemia-reperfusion injury, post-traumatic stress symptoms.

Patient Concerns: Targeted temperature management in the intensive care unit can improve the neurological outcomes of patients who are comatose after resuscitation from CA. However, there is often a lack of specific evaluation methods for optimal target temperature settings.

Objectives: This study investigates the impact of bilateral antegrade cerebral perfusion time on outcomes in aortic arch surgery.

Methods: In total, 961 patients underwent either hemi arch (n = 385) or total arch replacement (n = 576) with bilateral antegrade cerebral perfusion and moderate hypothermia management between 2006 and 2020 across 2 aortic centers. Antegrade cerebral perfusion time was categorized into 4 groups (≤30 min: n = 169, 30-60min: n = 298, 60-90min: n = 261, >90min: n = 233).

Objectives: To determine the optimal cooling duration for children after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) using an adaptive Bayesian trial design.

Design: The Pediatric Influence of Cooling duration on Efficacy in Cardiac Arrest Patients (P-ICECAP) trial is a randomized, response-adaptive duration/dose-finding clinical trial with blinded outcome assessment. Participants are randomized to one of several cooling durations (0, 12, 18, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 84, or 96 hr).
