A photo from open sources All blood in the human body is replaced special solution, which is then cooled by thawing and reviving frozen many years ago people popular in literature and cinema, however, from a scientific point of view is still far from practical application. Things are much better with freezing patients in therapeutic purposes. In Pittsburgh at the Presbyterian Hospital at local university begins first experiments on artificial freezing of patients with potentially fatal gunshot wounds. Their goal at this stage is to get extra time that could help save the patient a life. For this, doctors will replace all the blood in his body with salt solution, which is then cooled to about 10 degrees. Wherein the vital activity of cells will slow dramatically. Experiment participants formally can be considered dead, because they will stop breathing, they will cease brain activity. Cells on the other hand will stay alive, only they will live and work much more slowly, than at ordinary temperature. About two hours later, the doctors will return the patient’s blood and he will return to life. Previously, scientists have already conducted similar procedures, but with pigs. The success of the experiment was 90% In the vast majority of cases, the hearts of animals started to fight after they returned the blood, and physical and other abilities remained intact. In 2006 in Pittsburgh A similar experiment was carried out with a mouse. They just introduced her to a condition close to freezing with hydrogen sulfide. In two hours after the rodent was given normal air, he came in yourself. Artificial freezing, theatlantic.com writes, will apply only in exceptional cases. Experiment is being conducted for the first time, but cases of natural, so to speak, freezing recorded repeatedly. It is known, for example, that in 1999 Swede Anna Bagenholm survived after spending 80 minutes under the ice in ice water. She skied and fell through the ice. Her body temperature dropped to 14 degrees. Zahar RADOV
