Local cerebral hypothermia induced by selective infusion of cold lactated ringer's: a feasibility study in rhesus monkeys.

CONCLUSION: Local infusion of ice-cold lactated Ringer's solution via micro-catheter is a safe and effective method for selective cerebral hypothermia. This cooling method could potentially be developed as a new treatment in acute ischemic stroke. PMID: 27320250 [PubMed - in process]
