Description
Summary:Hypoxia and hypotension were related to transient interruptions of ventilatory support for additional dosing of PFCs. [...]partial liquid ventilation with PFCs is well tolerated and safe. [...]liquid ventilation may be used to induce hypothermia within minutes in patients resuscitated after cardiac arrest to limit infarct size.
