CI patient #224 was a 17 year old male from Canada. The patient was not a CI member. 

The patient died on April 5th, 2022.  The patient was placed in dry ice after he died.  The patient was stored in dry ice at a funeral home for the required two week period.  Once the two week period had passed, and all requirements were met by the patient’s next of kin, the patient was brought to the facility.  The patient arrived at our facility on April 22, 2022.

The patient was then transferred to the computer controlled cooling chamber to cool to liquid nitrogen temperature.  The human dry ice program was selected and the time needed to cool the patient to liquid nitrogen temperature was 25 hours.  The patient was then placed in a cryostat for long-term cryonic storage.

CI patient #223 was an 87 year old male from England. The patient was a CI member and at the time of his death.  The patient died at his home on March 17, 2022.  The patient was taken to the medical examiner’s office.  Once the medical examiner released the patient, members from Cryonics UK arranged for the patient to be picked up and frozen in dry ice.  They were not able to do a perfusion because the patient was not released soon enough by the medical examiner due to the fact that the patient died at home.  The patient was held in dry ice until transport arrangements to the US were made.  Once the arrangements were in place, the patient was flown in dry ice to Detroit Metro airport where he was picked up and brought to the CI facility.

The patient was then transferred to the computer controlled cooling chamber to cool to liquid nitrogen temperature.  The human dry ice program was selected and the time needed to cool the patient to liquid nitrogen temperature was 25 hours.  The patient was then placed in a cryostat for long-term cryonic storage.

CI patient #222 was a 53 year old female from England. The patient was a CI member and hospitalized at the time of her death. 

The patient’s family contracted with Cryonics UK for standby, perfusion and dry ice transport services.  The patient died on March 9th, 2022.  Cryonics UK perfused the patient, cooled her in dry ice to -80c and started working on transit permits and obtaining a flight for the patient, to Michigan.  The patient arrived in Michigan on March 17th at 3:45pm.  The patient was brought from Detroit Metro Airport to the CI facility.

The patient was then transferred to the computer controlled cooling chamber to cool to liquid nitrogen temperature.  The human vitrification program was selected and the time needed to cool the patient to liquid nitrogen temperature was five days and 12 hours.  The patient was then placed in a cryostat for long-term cryonic storage.
