They also do it in some neuro and trauma patients. We only use it on adults though.</p> <p>When the body temp is cooled down the demand for oxygen in vital organs is reduced. The body is able to heal and provide oxygen to the brain and heart instead of focusing on meeting the demands of other organs. One huge side effect is a greatly slowed heart rate (which is one of the reasons they used it on this baby). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/doctors-freeze-baby#post-568493 Fri, 15 Feb 2013 11:46:12 +0000 matador84 568493@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This is crazy. </p> <p><a href="http://news.yahoo.com/save-newborn-doctors-freeze-baby-120423990--abc-news-health.html" rel="nofollow">http://news.yahoo.com/save-newborn-doctors-freeze-baby-120423990--abc-news-health.html</a> </p>
