A thermoregulation model for hypothermic treatment of neonates

Highlights • Thermoregulation model to simulate hypothermia procedures. • Applied for the treatment of encephalopathy hypoxic-ischemia in neonates. • Blood temperature changes considered using a hemodynamic model. • Results show that the model can be used to study different cooling procedures. • May...
