An authority in cardiopulmonary bypass surgery, Dr. Smith developed a surgical approach that allows neurosurgeons to treat otherwise inoperable intracerebral aneurysms by inducing deep hypothermia with circulatory arrest. (columbia.edu)
Hyperthermia1
However, these previous conventional trials were based on hot water-, microwave- or radiofrequency-induced local hyperthermia, either individually or in combination with cytostatic agents, which could maintain continuous and stable treatment temperatures, but lack effective temperature control or regulation, and cannot provide uniform distribution of heat to the bladder.

The only heart surgeries that continued to require total circulatory arrest were repairs to the aortic arch. (wikipedia.org)
Ten animals were perfused after aortic and right atrial cannulation according to a uniform protocol: full-flow CPB (150-200 mL/kg per min), PCO 2 uncorrected for hypothermia (α-stat blood gas management). (biomedcentral.com)
Temperature8
By 1959, it was known from the animal experiments of Bigelow, Andjus and Smith, Gollan, Lewis's colleague, Niazi, and others that temperatures near 0 °C could be survived by mammals, and that colder temperature permitted the brain to survive longer circulatory arrest times, even beyond one hour. (wikipedia.org)
This can begin circulatory arrest before the brain has reached a safe temperature. (wikipedia.org)
By draining the blood from the dogs' bodies and injecting a low-temperature solution into their circulatory systems, scientists at the University of Pittsburgh's Safar Center for ResuscitationResearch reported in June 2005 that they had successfully put dogs in suspended animation and brought them back to life, most of them without brain damage.

paradoxical undressing Hypothermia is defined as a body core temperature below in humans. (theinfolist.com)
Hypothermia may be diagnosed based on either a person's symptoms in the presence of risk factors or by measuring a person's core temperature. (theinfolist.com)
Another classification system, the Swiss staging system, divides hypothermia based on the presenting symptoms which is preferred when it is not possible to determine an accurate core temperature. (theinfolist.com)

Involves1
The treatment of mild hypothermia involves warm drinks, warm clothing, and voluntary physical activity. (theinfolist.com)
Clinical trials1
Numerous clinical trials have shown that combining MMC administration with hypothermia can improve tumor ablation and prevent recurrence post-TUR. (spandidos-publications.com)
Cardiac arrest1
Suspended animation is used for the preservation of vital organs such as the brain and during cardiac arrest. (vedantu.com)
Remission1
We are now focusing on fully understanding all the components required to trigger appropriate activation of dendritic cells in HIV infection, which may help to induce an elite-controller-like, drug-free remission of HIV in a broader patient population, explains Yu, an associate professor of Medicine at Harvard Medical School. (regenerativemedicine.net)
Induction2
There are many techniques of suspended animation, one of the techniques of suspended animation is by induction of hypothermia. (vedantu.com)
GA usually is induced via inhalation induction. (mhmedical.com)
The origin of hypothermia and neuroprotection was also observed in infants who were exposed to cold due to abandonment and the prolonged viability of these infants. (wikipedia.org)
Blood3
The first heart surgery using hypothermia to provide a longer time that blood circulation through the whole body could be safely stopped was performed by F. John Lewis and Mansur Taufic at the University of Minnesota in 1952. (wikipedia.org)
Thereafter, the only surgeries that required stopping blood circulation to the whole body ("total circulatory arrest") were surgeries involving blood supply to the brain. (wikipedia.org)
The dogs' blood was put back into their circulatory systems after three hours of being declared clinically dead, and after receiving an electric shock to the heart , the animals were brought back to life. (vedantu.com)
Period1
To achieve a state of tolerance for the protection-preservation of the entire organism during a circulatory collapse "only by a limited period of one hour," Mark Roth's laboratory at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center and organisations like Suspended Animation, Inc. are working to put suspended animation into practice as a medical procedure. (vedantu.com)
