Most patients who suffer a cardiac arrest die after the event. Full neurological recovery occurs in only 6-23%. Until recently no specific post-arrest therapy was available to improve outcome. Application of therapeutic hypothermia (32-34 degrees C for 12-24 h) applied after cardiac arrest could help to improve this dreadful situation. This review covers the background of and recent clinical studies into hypothermia after cardiac arrest, and gives some insights into the future of resuscitation, namely suspended animation.
