Wow, Someday Soldier can do hibernation when injured

Mortally wounded on the battlefield is a nightmare for every soldier. Waiting for help to come sometimes like to gamble, because if it is too long to be increasingly severe wound and he finally died from blood loss.

Now, the elite in the United States is funding a research to find a cure hibernation. This medicine will make the severely wounded soldiers are in a condition they call 'survival window'.

In these conditions, the army will undergo hibernation. Organs function will be in condition as low as possible so as not getting a lot of blood loss, but not too low so far escaped brain damage.

The drug was developed with funding from the US Special Operations Command (SOCOM), which amount to US $ 550,000.

Prof. Geoffrey Dobson besama other scientists, Hayley Letson of the division of health and tropical medicine James Cook University has spent 7 years to develop this technique.
Targeted treatment is what is called by the surgeon as 'platinum ten minutes'.

"In the fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan, more than 87 percent of deaths occurred in the 30 minutes the soldiers first, before reaching the hospital," said Prof. Dobson, quoted from the Daily Mail, Friday (11/28/2014).

"Almost a quarter of this amount, approximately one thousand people, classified has a chance of survival. Time is the killer," said Prof. Dobson.

This hibernation treatment technique has two stages. First, will the drug will save the army from severe bleeding and injuries to the head in a few minutes early. Second, the drug will stabilize their condition in a longer time to be evacuated from the battlefield.

Advances in technology are very remarkable from USA, but it would be nice if all countries make peace without each show his power to the exclusion of everyone's safety.
