Three different procedures for cooling were accomplished after nitriding.
The samples were solidified from the melt with a CCT (continuous cooling transformation) procedure spanning a wide range of cooling rates thanks to a fast quenching apparatus developed by the authors.
In this paper the temperature gradients during fast and slow cooling for conventional and anatomical designs are compared as well as an optical procedure to directly compare the influence of cooling rate on residual stress.
alowest value during cooling procedure bMinimum-maximum range During the procedure participants never reported uncomfortable conditions necessitating termination of cooling.
Immediately after lesioning, animals were randomized for vehicle (PBS) or Lira (Novo Nordisk, Bagsværd, Denmark) injections (s.c).. Sham animals underwent the same procedure without cooling of the probe.
The HELIOS/ORIGEN-2 procedure showed a good accuracy for a short period of cooling time.
The sample is later cooled under a controlled rate of cooling (cooling rate 5 °C min−1).
The primary end-point was the cooling protocol, including the interval from arrest and ROSC to initiation of cooling, the cooling rate, cooling duration and re-warming rate.
There are several methods of cooling utilized with laser treatment including cryogen spray cooling, contact cooling incorporated into laser hand-pieces and air cooling [ 19, 26, 27].
Protocols on baseline characteristics, details on cardiac arrest, out-of-hospital procedures and events, cooling and rewarming procedures, neurological and functional outcome scores at discharge, information on possible adverse events and death are documented.
However, hypothermia was not used in these studies, while the combination of magnesium with cooling procedures has been shown to result in the highest neuroprotective effects [116].
