Aim: The principal objective of this study was to carry out a comprehensive and thorough analysis to compare the safety and effectiveness of the Arctic Sun, a servo-controlled surface cooling device, with conventional cooling techniques for providing therapeutic hypothermia in adult patients who had experienced hypoxic-ischemic brain injury following cardiopulmonary resuscitation.. Arctic Sun 5000 is the current version of the device; the previous version, Arctic Sun 2000, was discontinued in 2016. The 2 versions are functionally identical and differ only in the user interface; Arctic Sun 5000 has a touchscreen which displays a patient trend indicator and status graph.
