For hyperthermia

Atropine was thought to have produced hypothermia in a boy aged 14 who was being treated with paracetamol (acetaminophen) and cooling blankets for hyperthermia (7). As atropine can cause hypothermia in animals, a causal relation cannot be excluded, even if a concomitant action with paracetamol is assumed. 

The patient s airway, breathing, and circulation should be assessed and supportive care instituted as necessary. Many patients are anxious and respond to reassurance and a quiet, nonthreatening, nonstimulating environment. Benzodiazepines may be necessary for agitation or anxiety. Hyperthermia and seizures should be managed using standard therapy, a cool mist spray and fans for hyperthermia, and a benzodiazepine for seizures. Psychosis may require treatment with haloperidol.

Magnehc polymer nanoparticles should fulfill certain criteria in order to fit further biomedical applications these include a lack of sedimentation, a uniform size and size distribuhon, high and uniform magnetic contents, superparamagnetic behavior, a lack of toxicity, no iron leakage, high selectivity in case the particles are used for hyperthermia purposes, and sufficient heat generation at lower frequen-...
