US. Scientists at Pittsburgh’s Safar Centre for Resuscitation Research have created zombie dogs, reanimating the canines after several hours of clinical death in attempts to develop suspended animation for humans.
Actually the dogs are normal after re-animation. So they are alive as before. Read on to find their technique. Don’t try this at home.
Pittsburgh’s Safar Centre for Resuscitation Research has developed a technique in which subject’s veins are drained of blood and filled with an ice-cold salt solution. The animals are clinically dead at that point, as they stop breathing and have no heartbeat or brain activity.
But three hours later, their blood is replaced and the zombie dogs are brought back to life with an electric shock.
Plans to test the technique on humans should be realised within a year, according to the Safar Centre.
If successful in humans this can save several lives by allowing transportion of critically injured patients to treatment centers where they can be treated and brought back to life.
