One of the most important developments of modern medical history is the creation of the Cryogenics system. Every Medical department comes equipped with one to two enormous Cryogenic Cells, and these devices simplify treating even the most wounded of patients down to pressing a few buttons, though they will need to be initially set up and maintained throughout the course of their service. | One of the most important developments of modern medical history is the creation of the Cryogenics system.

Cryogenics tubes need a few crucial pieces to function, the first of which is [[Guide_to_chemistry#Cryoxadone | Cryogenics tubes need a few crucial pieces to function, the first of which is [[Guide_to_chemistry#Cryoxadone|Cryoxadone]]. Cryoxadone is a powerful regenerative chemical, but it only functions when the patient is at extremely low temperatures, which will be addressed shortly. A few spare beakers of Cryoxadone should be located near the Cryogenic Cells at the start of the round for quick insertion, but with too much use they will need to be replaced by Chemistry. | ||
Next, turn on the freezer attached to the Cryogenics pipe network and set the temperature as low as possible. This will cause patients in the cells to plummet in temperature, activating the healing properties of the Cryoxadone. | Next, turn on the freezer attached to the Cryogenics pipe network and set the temperature as low as possible.

If your patient is in critical condition, you have to work fast. Immediately apply epinephrine to prevent the patient from dying to Suffocation, then place medical gauze on any bleeding wounds, and take them to Medical if you aren't there already. Depending on the severity of their critical state, it is up to your discretion whether the Sleeper Pods or Cryogenics is where they need to go, though Cryogenics is recommended in these situations. If neither the Sleepers nor Cryogenics are available due to a power outage or something of that nature, you have to use what you have on-hand. If you have another person with you, have them begin CPR while you use your First Aid Kit to apply mesh or sutures to stabilize the individual. | If your patient is in critical condition, you have to work fast.
