Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is the evaluation of the influence of therapeutic hypothermia on resting energy expenditure REE in patients after cardiopulmonary resuscitation CPR We hypothesized that hypothermia would reduce resting energy expenditure in these patients
Detailed Description: Therapeutic hypothermia improves neurologic outcome in patients after cardiopulmonary resuscitation CPR because of cardiac arrest In the present study patients will be cooled to 33 degree Celsius after CPR for 24h To avoid shivering patients will be analgosedated and medically paralysed Analgosedation and relaxation have already shown to reduce oxygen consumption up to 20 in critically ill patients

In patients with brain injury who were cooled to 33 degree Celsius using a cooling meadow REE could be significantly reduced In critically ill patients with pyrexia cooling using a cooling meadow REE could be reduced Oxygen consumption was reduced about 147 per degree Celsius

So far no studies evaluating influence of therapeutic hypothermia on REE in patients after CPR have been published Therefore we plan to measure REE in 25 cooled patients after CPR using indirect Calorimetry Deltatrac II Metabolic Monitor Datex Instrumentarium Helsinki Finland
