Abstract:
Experimental studies and clinical practices have found that mild hypothermia has neuroprotective effects. However, its specific mechanism is unclear. Although its efficacy is questioned continuously, mild hypothermia technique is still widely used in the intracranial aneurysm surgery for reducing ischemic injury in recent years. Currently its safety, effectiveness and methods are the focus of studies. The article reviews the recent progress in this field.
