  • Ward of the state or prisoner
  • Anatomy, previous surgery or disease state contraindicating femoral venous access
  • Received neuromuscular blocking agents or central nervous system sedatives whose effects have not worn off prior to assessing level of consciousness following ROSC
  • Hypothermia initiated at a transferring facility prior to arrival at the enrolling hospital (excludes pre-hospital IV fluids or cold packs for cooling by EMS)
  • Current Inferior Vena Cava (IVC) filter
  • Known history of acute neurological illness or severe functional disabilities prior to arrest (e.g., seizures, traumatic brain injury, increased intracranial pressures, intracerebral hemorrhage, etc.)
  • Known heparin allergy
  • Known allergy to any adjunctive pharmacologic agent required for induction or maintenance of therapeutic hypothermia
  • Known history of bleeding or blood disorders such as coagulopathy, cryoglobulinemia, sickle cell or thrombocytopenia with a platelet count below 40,000.
  • Known hypersensitivity to hypothermia including a history of Raynaud's disease
  • Evidence of intracranial bleed
  • Terminal illness or life expectancy of less than 3 months prior to arrest
  • Currently enrolled in another investigational drug or device trial that has not completed the primary endpoint or that clinically interferes with this trial's endpoints Note: For the purpose of this protocol, subjects involved in extended follow-up trials for products that were investigational but are currently commercially available are not considered enrolled in an investigational trial.
