Heralding critical developments in the rapidly expanding field of therapeutic hypothermia, this reference serves as the first authoritative source on thermoregulation, body temperature manipulation, and the consequences of hypothermia. Contributors include recognized leaders and pioneers who have done much of the critical research in the field.
Rezensionen / Stimmen
"...Mayer and Sessler are to be commended for producing an excellent textbook that should serve as both a resource for a wide variety of disciplines dedicated to neuroprotection and a spark for future research efforts."
-The New England Journal of Medicine
"...This book does an outstanding job of reviewing our understanding of the physiology of body temperature alternations, of the impact of cooling on critical organs, and of updating the current status of clinical hypothermia."
-Peter Safar, MD
