Can hypothermia-induced changes in QRS and QT(c) intervals predict cardiac arrest?

open access: yesBMC Research Notes
Hypothermic cardiac arrest (HCA) is often caused by ventricular tachyarrhythmias in severe hypothermia. The QRS/QTc ratio may predict arrhythmia risk, but data are insufficient.

Induced Hypothermia Does Not Harm Hemodynamics after Polytrauma: A Porcine Model

open access: yesMediators of Inflammation, 2015
Background. The deterioration of hemodynamics instantly endangers the patients’ life after polytrauma. As accidental hypothermia frequently occurs in polytrauma, therapeutic hypothermia still displays an ambivalent role as the impact on the ...

History of accidental hypothermia

open access: yesResuscitation, 2011
Death from exposure to cold has been recognised for thousands of years but hypothermia as a clinical condition was not generally recognised until the mid-20th century and then only in extreme conditions such as immersion in cold water or snow. In the UK, hypothermia in less extreme conditions was not generally recognised until the 1960s. Recognition of

Patient in hypothermia - diagnostic and treatment problems in fire department

open access: yesCritical Care Innovations, 2018
Accidental hypothermia occurs when, as a result of environmental factors, the central body temperature drops below 35° C. Deep hypothermia is a life-threatening condition, but it is one of the reversible causes of cardiac arrest.

Pilot randomized trial of therapeutic hypothermia with serial cranial ultrasound and 18-22 month follow-up for neonatal encephalopathy in a low resource hospital setting in Uganda: study protocol [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Background: There is now convincing evidence that in industrialized countries therapeutic hypothermia for perinatal asphyxial encephalopathy increases survival with normal neurological function. However, the greatest burden of perinatal asphyxia falls in
