If they're less than 32 without cardiac arrest, I like right-sided thoracic lavage or some form of extra-correl warming. If you have the ability to do bypass, this is a good patient for that and keep going until you get 30, 32 degrees. The tough situation is when they're in cardiac arrest. What do you do?
