I would suggest that you do not go too far into the technical details. As long as you write fiction, it is enough that the procedure you decribe has probability. The average reader will not bother about detals. I'd suggest you "invent" a drug that lowers metablosm and body temp, and an antidote to wake them up. You could add cathetering for urine for a bit of juiciness, and some unpleasant side-effect during wakeup for drama, but otherwise, your story should be what kept the readers interested, not the technicalities.
Have you noticed that if Arthur C. Clarke had not been such a brilliant writer, most of his novels would have been terribly boring, due to all the technicalities?
