Suspended Animation

What Is Suspended Animation

The temporary slowing or halting of biological activity in order to maintain physiological capacities is the definition of suspended animation. The nature of this condition might be either hypometabolic or ametabolic. It may be brought on by endogenous, natural, or artificial biological, chemical, or physical methods. It may also be brought on by physical means. When it occurs in its natural state, it may be capable of self-reversal, as is the case with certain species that go into hypometabolic states during hibernation. However, when it is used for therapeutic purposes in a medical setting, such as in the case of deep hypothermic circulatory arrest, it must be technologically mediated in order to be brought back to life (DHCA).
