After cardiac arrest only 60% of patients regain consciousness. Of those that do, one third suffer irreversible cognitive deficits.

The Evidence

• Unconscious adults should be cooled following an out of hospital cardiac arrest
• Core body temperature cooled to 32-34°C
• Cooled body temperature maintained for 12-24 hours

Why the Need to Cool?

• Anoxic brain injury is a common outcome after cardiac arrest
•  Studies have shown a reduction in mortality and improved
  neurological outcomes after cooling
