1. Intranasal Cooling for Cerebral Hypothermia Treatment
Abstract : The controlled lowering of core body temperature to 32°C to 34°C is defined as therapeutic hypothermia (TH). Therapeutic hypothermia has been shown to improve neurological outcome and survival in unconscious patients successfully resuscitated after cardiac arrest. READ MORE

2. Novel Interventions in Cardiac Arrest : Targeted Temperature Management, Methylene Blue, S-PBN, Amiodarone, Milrinone and Esmolol, Endothelin and Nitric Oxide In Porcine Resuscitation Models
Abstract : It is a major clinical problem that survival rates after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest have not markedly improved during the last decades, despite extensive research and the introduction of new interventions. However, recent studies have demonstrated promising treatments such as targeted temperature management (TTM) and methylene blue (MB). READ MORE

3. Regional Lung Mechanics and Influence of an Active Diaphragm in Experimental Lung Injury
Abstract : Despite being an essential life-support strategy in severe respiratory failure, mechanical ventilation can, if not optimally set and monitored, lead to injury of the lung parenchyma and diaphragm. These conditions are called ventilator-induced lung injury and ventilator-induced diaphragmatic dysfunction (VIDD), respectively. READ MORE

4. Prehospital Diagnosis and Oxygen Treatment in ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction
Abstract : IntroductionPaper I: An Artificial Neural Network (ANN) was constructed to identify ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI) and predict the need for Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI). Paper II, III and IV: Studies suggest that O2 therapy may be harmful in STEMI patients. READ MORE

5. Assessment of the Cerebral Ischemic/Reperfusion Injury after Cardiac Arrest
Abstract : The cerebral damage after cardiac arrest is thought to arise both from the ischemia during the cardiac arrest but also during reperfusion. It is the degree of cerebral damage which determines the outcome in patients. This thesis focuses on the cerebral damage after cardiac arrest. READ MORE
