The diagnosis of hypothermia rests solely upon a measured core temperature of 35 degrees C or less; a special thermometer calibrated to record low temperatures should be used whenever hypothermia is suspected. Hospital management of the hypothermic patient consists of definitive rewarming therapy.

Pediatric Emergency Care, 1992
Accidental hypothermia has produced many cases of intact survival even after prolonged cardiac arrest, but it is also often fatal. In recent years, alterations in resuscitation care that sometimes confused or discouraged resuscitation teams have largely been supplanted by an emphasis on safe, rapid, effective rewarming. Rewarming decisions and even the

Effects of accidental hypothermia on posttraumatic complications and outcome in multiple trauma patients [PDF]
Injury, 2013 INTRODUCTION: Accidental hypothermia seems to predispose multiple trauma patients to the development of posttraumatic complications, such as Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome (SIRS), sepsis, Multiple Organ Dysfunction Syndrome (MODS), and increased

Critical Care Clinics, 1999
Individuals at extremes of age and those who have certain underlying medical conditions are at greatest risk for hypothermia. Hypothermia may occur during any season of the year and in any climate. Prompt recognition of hypothermia and early institution of the rewarming techniques are imperative for a successful outcome with minimal complications ...

Journal of The Royal Naval Medical Service, 1972
Abstract Some of the environmental factors which adversely affect body temperature regulation are briefly outlined. Advice on diagnosis and on both first aid and curative treatment of accidental hypothermia is proposed.

Accidental hypothermia causes profound changes to the body's physiology. After an initial burst of agitation (e.g., 36-37°C), vital functions will slow down with further cooling, until they vanish (e.g.

Journal of the American College of Emergency Physicians, 1977
Accidental hypothermia is an acute medical emergency with a high mortality rate. Physiologic derangements include hypoxemia, hypotension, acidosis, and arrhythmias. Management consists of careful monitoring rewarming, vigorous supportive care, and treatment of underlying and complicating disorders.

Treatment of Accidental Hypothermia
Scandinavian Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 1967A case of severe, chronic hypothermia (body-temperature 21.4°C) was successfully treated by means of extracorporeal circulation containing heat-exchanger and oxygenator. Thoracotomy was avoided. As far as we know, this is the first patient to survive such a low temperature without any residual disability.
