Abstract
Introduction Hypokalemia is known to occur in association with therapeutically induced hypothermia and is usually managed by the administration of potassium (K+). Methods We reviewed data from 74 patients who underwent a therapeutic hypothermia protocol at our medical institution. Results In four patients in whom data on serum K+ and temperature were available, a strong positive correlation between serum K+ and body temperature was found. Based on the close positive relationship between serum K+ and total body temperature, we hypothesize that serum K+ decreases during hypothermia owing to decreased activity of temperature-dependent K+ exit channels that under normal conditions are sufficiently active to match cellular K+ intake via sodium/K+/adenosine triphosphatase. Upon rewarming, reactivation of these channels results in a rapid increase in serum K+ as a result of K+ exit down its concentration gradient. Conclusion Administration of K+ during hypothermia should be done cautiously and avoided during rewarming to avoid potentially life-threatening hyperkalemia. K+ exit via temperature-dependent K+ channels provides a logical explanation for the rebound hyperkalemia. K+ exit channels may play a bigger role than previously appreciated in the regulation of serum K+ during normal and pathophysiological conditions.

Mild Hypothermia via External Cooling Improves Lung Function and Alleviates Pulmonary Inflammatory Response and Damage in Two-Hit Rabbit Model of Acute Lung Injury. J INVEST SURG 2022; 35:1472-1483. [PMID: 35435080 DOI: 10.1080/08941939.2022.2064010] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/11/2022] [Revised: 03/26/2022] [Accepted: 04/04/2022] [Indexed: 10/18/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Targeted temperature management (TTM) with therapeutic hypothermia (TH) has an organ-protective effect by mainly reducing inflammatory response. Here, our objective was to determine, for the first time, whether mild TH with external cooling, a simple and inexpensive method, could be safe or even beneficial in two-hit rabbit model of acute lung injury/acute respiratory distress syndrome (ALI/ARDS). METHODS Twenty-two New Zealand rabbits (6-month-old) were randomly divided into healthy control (HC) with conventional ventilation, but without injury, model group (ALI), and hypothermia group with external cooling (ALI-HT). After induction of ALI/ARDS through mild lung-lavages followed by non-protective ventilation, mild hypothermia was started in ALI-HT group (body temperature of 33-34 °C). All rabbits were conventionally ventilated for an additional 6-h by recording respiratory parameters. Finally, lung histopathology and inflammatory response were evaluated. RESULTS Hypothermia was associated with higher oxygen saturation, resulting in partial improvement in the P/F ratio (PaO2/FiO2), oxygenation index, mean airway pressure, and PaCO2, but did not affect lactate levels. The ALI-HT group had lower histopathological injury scores (hyperemia, edema, emphysema, atelectasis, and PMN infiltration). Further, tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), interleukin (IL)-6 and -8 levels in lung tissue and serum samples markedly reduced due to hypothermia. CONCLUSION Mild TH with external cooling reduced lung inflammation and damage, whereas it resulted in partial improvement in gas exchanges. Our findings highlight that body temperature control may be a potentially supportive therapeutic option for regulating cytokine production and respiratory parameters in ALI/ARDS.

Abstract
Neonatal hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy is a disorder with heterogeneous manifestation due to asphyxia during perinatal period. It affects approximately 3-12 children per 1000 live births and cause death of 1 million neonates worldwide per year. Besides, motor disabilities, seizures, impaired muscle tone and epilepsy are few of the consequences of hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy. Despite an extensive research effort regarding various treatment strategies, therapeutic hypothermia with intensive care unit supportive treatment remains the only approved method for neonates who have suffered from moderate to severe hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy. However, these protocols are only partially effective given that many infants still suffer from severe brain damage. Thus, further research to systematically test promising neuroprotective treatments in combination with hypothermia is essential. In this review, we discussed the pathophysiology of hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy and delved into different promising treatment modalities, such as melatonin and erythropoietin. However, preclinical studies and clinical trials are still needed to further elucidate the mechanisms of action of these modalities.

Abstract
RATIONALE Therapeutic hypothermia is an effective medical treatment for neurological recovery after cardiac arrest. Here, we describe a case of successful mild therapeutic hypothermia after cardiac arrest during living-donor liver transplantation. PATIENT CONCERNS A 54-year-old woman with alcoholic liver cirrhosis was admitted for living-donor liver transplantation. Cardiac arrest occurred during the anhepatic phase. After cardiopulmonary resuscitation, spontaneous circulation returned, but the bispectral index level remained below 10 until the end of surgery. DIAGNOSES Neurological injury caused by global cerebral hypoperfusion was suspected. INTERVENTIONS The patient was treated with mild therapeutic hypothermia for 24hours after resuscitation targeting a core body temperature of 34°C with surface cooling using ice bags. OUTCOMES The patient recovered consciousness about 22 hours after the event. However, she showed symptoms of delirium even when discharged. At the 3-month follow-up exam, she showed no specific neurological complications. The transplanted liver showed no problems with regeneration. LESSONS Mild therapeutic hypothermia may be safely adopted in cases of cardiac arrest in liver transplant patients and is beneficial for neurological recovery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) for the management of peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) can involve significant blood loss which necessitates the transfusion of blood products. This poses a particular challenge in the Jehovah's Witnesses population whose beliefs do not permit the transfusion of blood products or blood-related derivatives. This report describes the experience of one institution performing CRS with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) for PC in Jehovah's Witnesses and perioperative management strategies employed to avoid blood transfusion. METHODS A review of literature and prospectively collated data of Jehovah's Witnesses patients who underwent extensive CRS for PC and HIPEC for PC. RESULTS Four patients had CRS and HIPEC for PC. The median PC index score was 11 and complete cytoreduction was achieved in all cases. Primary tumours were ovarian (n = 1), colorectal (n = 2) and neuroendocrine tumour of gastrointestinal origin (n = 1). The median difference between preoperative and postoperative haemoglobin was 38 g/L (23-43 g/L). Strategies included acute normovolumaeic haemodilution and autotransfusion within a closed circuit, autotransfusion from cell salvage and provisions for possible use of a haemoglobin based oxygen carrier. Ancillary measures identified and implemented to minimize transfusion dependence included, but were not limited to, preoperative iron infusion, perioperative acute haemodilution and cell salvage, administration of tranexamic acid, prothrombinex and use of paediatric tubes for venepuncture. CONCLUSION The review suggests CRS and HIPEC for extensive PC can be done safely in circumstances where transfusion of allogenic blood products is not permitted.

Abstract
This review compares two states that lower energy expenditure: non-rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep and torpor. Knowledge on mechanisms common to these states, and particularly on the role of adenosine in NREM sleep, may ultimately open the possibility of inducing a synthetic torpor-like state in humans for medical applications and long-term space travel. To achieve this goal, it will be important, in perspective, to extend the study to other hypometabolic states, which, unlike torpor, can also be experienced by humans.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Blood potassium is the main prognostic biomarker used for triage in hypothermic cardiac arrest. The aim of this review was to assess the impact of hypothermia on blood potassium levels and compare the underlying pathophysiological theories. METHODS The Medline electronic database was searched via PubMed for articles published from January 1970 to December 2016. The search strategy included studies related to hypothermia and potassium levels. The relevant literature on clinical studies and experimental studies was reviewed by the authors. RESULTS Among the 50 studies included in the review, 39 (78%) reported a decrease in blood potassium levels upon hypothermia onset. Hypothermic hypokalaemia is linked to an intracellular shift rather than an actual net loss. The intracellular shift is caused by a variety of factors such as enhanced functioning of Na+K+ATPase, beta-adrenergic stimulation, pH and membrane stabilisation in deep hypothermia. In contrast, hypothermia can act as an aggravating factor in severe trauma with hyperkalaemia being an indicator of an irreversible state of cell death. An increase in the blood potassium level during hypothermia may result from a lack of enzyme functioning at cold temperatures and blocked active transport. CONCLUSION Hypothermia causes an initial decrease of potassium levels; however, the final stage of hypothermic cardiac arrest can induce hyperkalaemia due to cell lysis and final depolarisation. Better understanding the physiopathology of potassium levels during accidental hypothermia could be critically important to better select patients who could benefit from aggressive resuscitation therapy such as extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation.

Long-Term Effects of Induced Hypothermia on Local and Systemic Inflammation - Results from a Porcine Long-Term Trauma Model. PLoS One 2016; 11:e0154788.

Abstract
Background Hypothermia has been discussed as playing a role in improving the early phase of systemic inflammation. However, information on the impact of hypothermia on the local inflammatory response is sparse. We therefore investigated the kinetics of local and systemic inflammation in the late posttraumatic phase after induction of hypothermia in an established porcine long-term model of combined trauma. Materials & Methods Male pigs (35 ± 5kg) were mechanically ventilated and monitored over the study period of 48 h. Combined trauma included tibia fracture, lung contusion, liver laceration and pressure-controlled hemorrhagic shock (MAP < 30 ± 5 mmHg for 90 min). After resuscitation, hypothermia (33°C) was induced for a period of 12 h (HT-T group) with subsequent re-warming over a period of 10 h. The NT-T group was kept normothermic. Systemic and local (fracture hematoma) cytokine levels (IL-6, -8, -10) and alarmins (HMGB1, HSP70) were measured via ELISA. Results Severe signs of shock as well as systemic and local increases of pro-inflammatory mediators were observed in both trauma groups. In general the local increase of pro- and anti-inflammatory mediator levels was significantly higher and prolonged compared to systemic concentrations. Induction of hypothermia resulted in a significantly prolonged elevation of both systemic and local HMGB1 levels at 48 h compared to the NT-T group. Correspondingly, local IL-6 levels demonstrated a significantly prolonged increase in the HT-T group at 48 h. Conclusion A prolonged inflammatory response might reduce the well-described protective effects on organ and immune function observed in the early phase after hypothermia induction. Furthermore, local immune response also seems to be affected. Future studies should aim to investigate the use of therapeutic hypothermia at different degrees and duration of application.

Abstract
Abrupt deprivation of substrates to neuronal tissue triggers a number of pathological events (the “ischemic cascade”) that lead to cell death. As this is a process of delayed neuronal cell death and not an instantaneous event, several pharmacological and non-pharmacological strategies have been developed to attenuate or block this cascade. The most promising neuroprotectant so far is therapeutic hypothermia and its beneficial effects have inspired researchers to further improve its protective benefit by combining it with other neuroprotective agents. This review provides an overview of all neuroprotective strategies that have been combined with therapeutic hypothermia in rodent models of focal cerebral ischemia. A distinction is made between drugs interrupting only one event of the ischemic cascade from those mitigating different pathways and having multimodal effects. Also the combination of therapeutic hypothermia with hemicraniectomy, gene therapy and protein therapy is briefly discussed. Furthermore, those combinations that have been studied in a clinical setting are also reviewed.
