[color=#333333][size=3]It's called '[/size][/color][b]deep hypothermic circulatory arrest[/b][color=#333333][size=3]' [/size][/color]

[color=#333333][size=3]Basically, you are [/size][/color][i]killing[/i][color=#333333][size=3] the patient for a span of about one hour and then bringing him back to life. [/size][/color]

[color=#333333][size=3]How do you do this? [/size][/color]

[color=#333333][size=3]By cooling the body to about 12-18 degrees Celsius during which the patient's breathing, heartbeat, and brain-activity come to a standstill- he is clinically [/size][/color][b][i]dead.[/i][/b]

[color=#333333][size=3]And then you resurrect him after the surgery! [/size][/color]
[color=#333333][size=3]( Once surgery is complete, the patient is warmed up and his heart restarted with a defibrillator) [/size][/color]


[color=#333333][size=3]what makes this procedure even more interesting is that during this span of one hour, the patient's blood is drained from his body in order to eliminate blood pressure. [/size][/color]
[color=#333333][size=3]This is done by using a machine called HEART-LUNG machine.[/size][/color]

[b]What is the use of cooling the body to such extreme low temperatures?[/b]

[color=#333333][size=3]At low temperatures, the metabolic activities of body organs reduce and clamping the blood vessels such as the aorta ( in cardiac surgery) and the vessels of the brain( during neurosurgery) becomes easier. Also, you are avoiding the risk of brain/heart damage that is likely in a risky surgical procedure. [/size][/color]
