Deep hypothermia temperature threshold example.
| Stage | Target temperature | Cooling/Warming rate | Key considerations |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cooling phase | 37 °C → 18–22 °C | 1 °C every 3–5 min | Maintain blood-HCU ΔT ≤ 10 °C |
| Hypothermic maintenance | 18–22 °C | Stable | Monitor NIRS |
| Controlled rewarming | 18–22 °C → 32 °C | 1 °C every 3–5 min | Keep blood-core ΔT ≤ 4 °C |
| Final rewarming | 32 °C → 36–37 °C | 1 °C every 5 min | Monitor cerebral saturation (rSO2) to prevent overheating |
