[/QUOTE]Suspended Animation Can Allow Survival without Brain Damage after Traumatic Exsanguination Cardiac Arrest of 60 Minutes in Dogs.
and Survival without brain damage after clinical death of 60-120 mins in dogs using suspended animation by profound hypothermia. (Crit Care Med. 2003 May;31(5):1523-31.)Abstract : have to pay to view the entire paper (no I have not).
Not as good a result as has be indicated elsewhere. Unfortunately , I am not prepared to pay $US20 to access the entire article to assess the voracity of the claims. The resuscetated dogs were never actually dead , they were in a state of suspended animation (very deep form of coma). The study also involved a very small sample of animals. The story from News Corp was a hoax (or at the very least highly misleading) - no Zombie Dogs. |

MODERATOR COMMENT Somerled, please refrain from using the word hoax or making bets. If you would like to discuss suspended animation, that's fine. Go for it. Enjoy. BUT, this is close to baiting. This is NOT the politics forum. Please keep it civil. END OF MODERATOR COMMENT |

*Proton shakes head* Somerled, you really hate admitting you were wrong dont you. Firstly: Your main claim in the other thread was that this story was false Secondly: The article from the other thread came from the Telegraphs 'Other Side' section, a section of short, interesting and yet fairly trivial news stories, the article was 300 words long and meant for the layman. Distinctions between having their heart stopped for 1 hr and death are irrelevant |

Would anyone like to discuss the possibilities created by suspended animation? |

Sure - care to start it off. I think the research noted above is more related to battlefield and accident trauma treatment than long term suspended animation (for space exploration) , and from what they say above (if it can be extrapolated to humans - ) very risky. Likely that the crew would never revive , and any who did would be severely brain damaged. |
