  • Title: Progress in shivering control.
    Author: Mahmood MA, Zweifler RM.
    Journal: J Neurol Sci; 2007 Oct 15; 261(1-2):47-54. PubMed ID: 17512551.
    Abstract:
    Hypothermia is a potent neuroprotectant and induced hypothermia holds great promise as a therapy for acute neuronal injury. Thermoregulatory responses, most notably shivering, present major obstacles to therapeutic temperature management. A review of thermoregulatory physiology and strategies aimed at controlling physiologic responses to hypothermia is presented.
