Mashup Score: 0Hypothermia and Prolonged Time From Procedure End to Extubation After Endovascular Thoracic Aortic Surgery - 1 year(s) ago
Perioperative hypothermia (core temperature <36°C) occurs in 50%-to-80% of patients recovering from thoracic aortic surgery, though its effects have not been described fully in this context. The authors, therefore, sought to characterize the incidence of perioperative hypothermia and its association with time from procedure end to extubation in endovascular aortic surgical patients.

Mashup Score: 1Speed of cooling after cardiac arrest in relation to the intervention effect: a sub-study from the TTM2-trial - Critical Care - 1 year(s) ago
Background Targeted temperature management (TTM) is recommended following cardiac arrest; however, time to target temperature varies in clinical practice. We hypothesised the effects of a target temperature of 33 °C when compared to normothermia would differ based on average time to hypothermia and those patients achieving hypothermia fastest would have more favorable outcomes. Methods In this…

Mashup Score: 0Role of Hypothermia in Adult Cardiac Surgery Patients: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis - 2 year(s) ago
The role of hypothermia in preventing organ damage is intriguing from a physiologic point of view. Unfortunately, the promising findings in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest have not been confirmed by recent multicenter randomized controlled trials (RCTs).1 Moreover, in critically ill settings (outside the out-of-hospital cardiac arrest setting), there is an indication of harm in high-quality RCTs.2…
