Association between frailty and mortality among patients with accidental hypothermia: a nationwide observational study in Japan. [PDF]

BMC Geriatr, 2021
Background Frailty has been associated with a risk of adverse outcomes, and mortality in patients with various conditions. However, there have been few studies on whether or not frailty is associated with mortality in patients with accidental hypothermia

Accidental hypothermia: direct evidence for consciousness as a marker of cardiac arrest risk in the acute assessment of cold patients [PDF]

Scandinavian Journal of Trauma, Resuscitation and Emergency Medicine, 2022
Background Rapid stratification of the risk of cardiac arrest is essential in the assessment of patients with isolated accidental hypothermia. Traditional methods based on measurement of core temperature are unreliable in the field.

Machine learning-based prediction models for accidental hypothermia patients [PDF]

Journal of Intensive Care, 2021
Background Accidental hypothermia is a critical condition with high risks of fatal arrhythmia, multiple organ failure, and mortality; however, there is no established model to predict the mortality. The present study aimed to develop and validate machine
