Equipment review: Cooling catheters to induce therapeutic hypothermia
Experience with the device is still relatively limited, but initial reports (albeit in small numbers of patients) suggest that it is an effective and reasonably quick method for inducing hypothermia. Maximum cooling rates in the published studies have averaged at around 2–2.5°C/hour (for review [, ]).

Therapeutic Hypothermia After Cardiac Arrest
Therapeutic hypothermia is a type of treatment. It's sometimes used for people who have a cardiac arrest. Cardiac arrest happens when the heart suddenly stops beating. Once the heart starts beating again, healthcare providers use cooling devices to lower your body temperature for a short time. It's lowered to around 89°F to 93°F (32°C to ...
