The Nature and Treatment of Hypothermia was first published in 1983. Minnesota Archive Editions uses digital technology to make long-unavailable books once again accessible, and are published unaltered from the original University of Minnesota Press editions. Hypothermia, or abnormally low body temperature, occurs both in accidental situations (exposure to cold) and in relation to such medical disorders as cardiac disease, diabetes, coma, insulin shock, drunkenness, and certain conditions in the very young and the very old. The hypothermic individual is unable to regulate body temperature, which can drop in accidental hypothermia as low as 27 degrees centigrade (80 degrees fahrenheit). Medical risk is increased by heat loss, and if the victim already suffers from disease, from a body circulation impairment—often true in the elderly—or from a physical impairment like drunkenness, the vulnerability to cold illness often increases. The 18 papers in this book, prepared for a Continuing Medical Education conference at the University of Minnesota-Duluth Medical School, provide state of the art information on the diagnosis, physiology, and treatment of hypothermia. Since severe hypothermia is a major medical emergency and the victim is often found far from shelter, this book devotes primary attention to emergency and in-hospital procedures for rewarming the body, starting an arrested heart, dealing with shock, and treating cold damage to the body. Yet its comprehensive approach—its emphasis upon physiology as well as treatment—will make it a useful book for research scientists and students of medicine and human physiology as well as for physicians. The contributors to this volume are clinical and research scientists from Canada, Great Britain, and the United States. Editors Robert Pozos and Lorentz E. Wittmers, Jr., are associate professors in the department of physiology, School of Medicine, University of Minnesota-Duluth.

Rapid progress in technology and its application to diagnosis and monitoring of brain tissue temperature and metabolism have resulted in advances in the therapy for critically brain-injured patients and breakthroughs in understanding the pathophysiology of brain damage. The latest concept of brain hypothermia therapy clarifies targets such as brain thermal pooling, masking brain hypoxia associated with catecholamine surge, the metabolic shift from glucose to lipids, and selective radical damage of dopamine in the central nervous system. This volume explains the mechanism of brain injury and how brain hypothermia treatment differs from other hypothermia therapy in four major sections: Brain Injury Mechanism, Pathophysiology of Hypothermia, Basic Research of Hypothermia Treatment, and Clinical Studies of Brain Hypothermia. The book is a valuable source for practitioners and researchers in neurosurgery and neurology and in critical care and emergency medicine.

Complications in Neuroanesthesia focuses on complications that may arise related to neuroanesthesia practice and discusses its various causes. Each complication is written as a separate chapter, and the pathophysiology and mechanisms of each complication, as well as measures for diagnosis, treatment and prevention are discussed. Towards the end of the book, several case scenarios are provided to the readers that challenge readers to diagnose the possible complication for each case. Chapters include brain and spinal cord problems, cardiovascular and hematological problems, and nerve and muscle problems. Written in a standard format, Complications in Neuroanesthesia provides quick and easy access to understanding problems in neuroanesthesia. It provides insight into all possible complications occurring during perioperative management of neurosurgical and neurologic patients. It is useful for trainees, clinicians, and researchers in the fields of neurosurgery, neurocritical care, and neurology by providing an understanding of preventable mishaps that may occur in neurosurgical or neurologic patients. Quick and easy reference for understanding problems in neuroanesthesia Provides comprehensive insights into all possible complications occurring during perioperative management of neurosurgical and neurologic patients Includes useful section with clinical case studies of complications in neuroanesthesia

This book provides a comprehensive overview of the multitude of different forms of thermotherapy in connection with aspects of thermal physiology and cell biology. The aim is to elucidate the scientific background of therapeutic actions and to promote effective new applications at the beginning of the 21st century. Significant to these purposes is cooperation between experts in the fields of thermal biology, hyper thermic oncology, rheumatology, and balneology, as represented by the editors. Emphasis has been placed on a balanced choice of contributions, in the hope that this will enable the reader to draw helpful connections between the principles and prac tice of thermotherapy. It is apparent that a wealth of published data exists concerning thermotherapy on the one hand and thermal physiology on the other. However, in the former field empirical aspects of therapeutic usefulness prevail, while in the latter, aspects of basic science are in the foreground. Accordingly, the sources where published data may be found are quite different and as a consequence many findings of potential mutual interest published in medical journals have gone unnoticed by readers of physio logical journals, and vice versa. It is hoped that this book will bridge the gap and encourage researchers' efforts to integrate the available knowledge to attain optimal coordination of clinical and theoretical aspects.
