Great article on post arrest hypothermia
There is a great article on the use of hypothermia to reduce post resuscitation neurologic injury on MSNBC this week. The human aspects behind adopting the technology as well as the financial impact are analyzed in terms anyone can understand.
Cooling therapy has chilling effect on heart attack deaths…
The authors (uncredited on MSNBC) do an excellent job of looking at the hurdles to adopting post arrest hypothermia. Things like the need for equipment, cross departmental staffing and overall by-in for the procedure by health care providers.
Take a look at this excellent write-up and then as always, tell us what you think here at Studio-A.
