Description
As we now bring the Hypothermia Symposium to Europe and Sweden, the land of ice and honey, the theme will be "Brain and Heart", and include cardiology and myocardial protection in addition to brain protection and neurointensive care.
The focus areas include translational and basic research and clinical trials with the following topics:
Therapeutic hypothermia in
Cardiac arrest and neonatal encephalopathy
Stroke
Traumatic brain injury
Myocardial infarction
Mechanisms of tissue protection by hypothermia
Prognostication
Emerging tissue cooling technologies
We believe that clinicians and basic scientists in the fields of neurology, neurosurgery, neurointensive care, paediatrics, neurobiology, experimental medicine, and cardiology will appreciate the outstanding and important science presented at the symposium.
