“…After extensive preclinical work suggesting that TH lowers metabolic rates and oxygen consumption, [10][11][12] TH began to be used in the operating room for patients undergoing total circulatory arrest during cardiac surgery in the mid 1950's. [13][14][15] The reasoning behind the use of TH in this setting was that lower tissue oxygen requirements could extend the time a patient could be without circulation, allowing surgeons to perform longer, more extensive cardiac procedures. 13 Improved tolerance to ischemia also suggested the possibility of preserving tissue for solid organ transplantation.…”

“…Bailey and associates (36,48) encountered an operative mor tality of 69 per cent in the 16 patients on whom they operated. In all fairness, it should be emphasized that the lesions for which they were operating were extremely serious ones; for example, their series included a number of cases of transposition of the great vessels, a lesion which has a very high operative mortality.…”
