Minimal effects on ex vivo coagulation during mild therapeutic hypothermia in post cardiac arrest patients.OBJECTIVES
 Mild therapeutic hypothermia (MTH) is being used to improve neurological outcome and survival in patients successfully resuscitated after cardiac arrest.  Upon reaching target temperature (32°C) Extem and Intem CT were increased compared to baseline with 57s (49-75) to 65s (59-72) and 165s (144-183) to 193s (167-212) respectively (median with IQR; P<0.05), with a further significant increase after 24h of hypothermia with 68s (57-80) and 221s (196-266).
