*This observation was used to pursue hypothermia in other causes of anoxic injury, which is clinically used today.
With pretty astounding results, honestly. My son was born having been without oxygen for at least 6-9 minutes. He was immediately put on a "cold blanket" with his temperature maintained at 92 (F) for 72 hours to prevent brain damage... He has since made a complete recovery with no physical neurological issues present.
This article might be complete bunk, but the hypothermia treatment protocols definitely are NOT.
- sokoloff 9y agoI'm very glad for the outcome your son and family experienced, but can hardly imagine the horror that you went through in that 72 hours and subsequent time until you became assured of the outcome.
