Therapeutic hypothermia after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest - Should we keep platelets in mind?

But, what should we do if our patient does not need antithrombotic treatment for any reason? After this case, doubts arise on the need to use an anti-thrombotic treatment on all patients subjected to therapeutic hypothermia in the context of aborted cardiac arrest
