This article is dedicated to present a summarization and systematic interpretation on brain cooling strategies developed in animals by classifying and comparatively analyzing each typical biological brain cooling mechanism from the perspective of bio-heat transfer.
Therefore, selective brain cooling methods have been investigated to minimize the complications associated with systemic hypothermia by selectively cooling the brain while maintaining normal core body temperature [9].
Brain temperature decreased biexponentially, dropping rapidly to 34.0 ± 1.4 °C within 30 min and then decreased more slowly and stabilized at 33.7 ± 0.8 °C within the first hour of brain cooling resulting in a mean brain cooling rate of 4.5 ± 0.8 °C/h.
