Abstract
Targeted temperature management (TTM) is a recommended neuroprotective intervention for coma after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). However, controversies exist concerning the proper implementation and overall efficacy of post-CA TTM, particularly related to optimal timing and depth of TTM and cooling methods. A review of the literature finds that optimizing and individualizing TTM remains an open question requiring further clinical investigation. This paper will summarize the preclinical and clinical trial data to-date, current recommendations, and future directions of this therapy, including new cooling methods under investigation. For now, early induction, maintenance for at least 24 hours, and slow rewarming utilizing endovascular methods may be preferred. Moreover, timely and accurate neuro-prognostication is valuable for guiding ethical and cost-effective management of post-CA coma. Current evidence for early neuro-prognostication after TTM suggests that a combination of initial prediction models, biomarkers, neuroimaging, and electrophysiological methods is the optimal strategy in predicting neurological functional outcomes.

Abstract
To date, the optimal cooling device for targeted temperature management (TTM) remains unclear. Water-circulating cooling blankets are broadly available and quickly applied but reveal inaccuracy during maintenance and rewarming period. Recently, esophageal heat exchangers (EHEs) have been shown to be easily inserted, revealed effective cooling rates (0.26-1.12°C/h), acceptable deviations from target core temperature (<0.5°C), and rewarming rates between 0.2 and 0.4°C/h. The aim of this study was to compare cooling rates, accuracy during maintenance, and rewarming period as well as side effects of EHEs with water-circulating cooling blankets in a porcine TTM model. Mean core temperature of domestic pigs (n = 16) weighing 83.2 ± 3.6 kg was decreased to a target core temperature of 33°C by either using EHEs or water-circulating cooling blankets. After 8 hours of maintenance, rewarming was started at a goal rate of 0.25°C/h. Mean cooling rates were 1.3 ± 0.1°C/h (EHE) and 3.2 ± 0.5°C/h (blanket, p < 0.0002). Mean difference to target core temperature during maintenance ranged between ±1°C. Mean rewarming rates were 0.21 ± 0.01°C/h (EHE) and 0.22 ± 0.02°C/h (blanket, n.s.). There were no differences with regard to side effects such as brady- or tachycardia, hypo- or hyperkalemia, hypo- or hyperglycemia, hypotension, shivering, or esophageal tissue damage. Target temperature can be achieved faster by water-circulating cooling blankets. EHEs and water-circulating cooling blankets were demonstrated to be reliable and safe cooling devices in a prolonged porcine TTM model with more variability in EHE group.
