1. A method for treating a human patient comprising:
- (a) injecting into the bloodstream of a patient who is breathing a gas mixture having greater than 25% oxygen an aqueous solution comprising;
0.1 to 0.8 M Mg++ and having an osmolarity less than 1500 mOSm/l; and
(b) increasing the rate of injection at least until the patient feels a sensation of warmth in a target area of the patient'"'"'s body, wherein the patient has suffered a stroke or brain injury.

27. A method of treating a human patient, comprising the steps of:
-
a) providing an injectable solution comprising one or more components, including magnesium ions; b) administering the solution by injecting the solution into the patient'"'"'s bloodstream, while adjusting the injection rate based upon temperature feedback from the patient; c) providing breathable oxygen comprising at least 25% oxygen, to the patient in the course of administering the solution; whereby the solution is administered to the patient at an increasing rate until the patient temperature feedback indicates an increase in warmth in the injured region of the patient, whereupon the injection rate is adjusted in order to maintain the increase in warmth for a desired period of time, wherein the patient has suffered a stroke or brain injury. - View Dependent Claims (28, 29, 30)
