简要总结
Caffeinol is a combination of caffeine and alcohol. The amount given is about the same as 1-2 glasses of wine and 3-4 cups of coffee. The patient receives a one time dose given over two hour while being cooled to 34.5 C.

结局指标
主要结局
Number of Participants With Symptomatic Intracerebral Hemorrhage
时间窗: from pre-dosage to 90 day followup
Symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhages were measured by a full NIHSS(National Institute of Health Stroke Scale) prior to caffeinol \& hypothermia,at the end of hypothermia \& rewarming, 24 hrs after stroke onset, daily during hospitalization,\& at the 90 day follow-up visit. In addition, modified NIHSS were done hourly during the 24 hr hypothermia period \& 12 hr rewarming period. At the end of rewarming an MRI was obtained to verify if hemorrhages or neurologic deteriorations were present.NIHSS scores severity of stroke on 11 items;more points given for greater deficiencies(range 0-42,0=normal)
Number of Participants With Catheter Related Complications During Hypothermia & Rewarming
时间窗: over 36 hour period
Catheter-related complications assessed whether participants had bleeding (major hemorrhaging) that required a blood transfusion, this was determined by labs. Participants were monitored for infections every hour during vital signs in the 24 hour hypothermia phase and 12 hour rewarming phase.
Number of Participants With Cardiorespiratory Failure
时间窗: every 30 minutes during hypothermia induction
The possibility of cardiorespiratory failure was monitored every 30 minutes during the 24 hour hypothermia period based on vitals signs and oxygen saturation.
次要结局
- Feasibility: Time Required to Reach the Target Core Temperature or Lowest Tolerated Temperature, Stability of Patient Temperature, Control of Rewarming,(rewarming over 12 hours until 36.5C has been achieved)
- Achievement of Therapeutic Serum Ethanol and Caffeine Levels, and Amount of Sedation Needed to Suppress Shivering.(rewarming over 12 hours until 36.5C has been achieved)
- Efficacy: NIHSS < 2 at 24 Hours, Modified Rankin Scale (mRS) < 2 at 3 Months, NIHSS < 2 at 3 Months, and Length of Hospital and ICU Stay.(90 days)
