Good article outlining the S-MIX as a standard quantitative measure of ischemic damage in Cryonics, along with protocols to keep this damage as close to zero as possible. The S-MIX quantification helps move Cryonics into the realm of mainstream medicine and provides a metric for cryopreservation quality. Assisted suicide as a legal, ethical, moral necessity will help us keep the S-MIX optimal, and should be supported by our community. Bravo for your work, Aschwin!
Your citation states “ the first priority is to reduce cerebral oxygen consumption to make the brain more tolerant to the limited blood flow CPS produces.”
Since this is an experimental procedure what do you think about IRB review?

Is there a risk with oxygenated perfusion that the patient might regain consciousness?
This is where IRB review might be valuable.
