Therapeutic hypothermia is presently the most promising neuroprotective treatment of patients with acute brain injuries.
However, there are still controversies as to how general this treatment is in aspects of brain ischemia and by which mechanisms it is brain protective. Is therapeutic hypothermia an option in brain trauma? Following stroke? Also is there a specific detrimental mechanism affected by mild hypothermia or is there a general downregulation of many injurious events. And, does hypothermia effectively protect the myocardium and other tissues from ischemia-reperfusion damage in the clinical setting.
At the 3rd International hypothermia symposium in Lund, the most recent progress in the area of therapeutic hypothermia will be presented and discussed.
