  • Title: Expedited brain cooling: Persistent temperature management from first aid to interhospital treatment.
    Author: Xu S, Ji X, Li M, Wu D.
    Journal: J Cereb Blood Flow Metab; 2023 Feb; 43(2):319-321. PubMed ID: 36127836.
    Abstract:
    Selective brain cooling is a promising technique for improving outcomes in ischemic stroke in the area of reperfusion. A recent study described the efficacy of a new method of selective brain cooling via active conductive head cooling. This is a major step forward in the administration of hypothermic treatment during pre-hospital transfer. However, to enhance the benefits of selective therapeutic cooling, a more comprehensive strategy preventing delay in hypothermic induction and increasing the accuracy of selectivity in the brain should be considered to mitigate the side effects related to therapeutic hypothermia.
