Induced Hypothermic Metabolic Suspension, usually abbreviated down to IHMS, is an invasive medical procedure in which the body's temperature is artificially lowered, slowing vital functions and dramatically lowering the body's energy needs. This procedure is endured by almost every newcomer to Poseidon en route.

Simplified versions of IHMS can be induced for shorter periods of time.
