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.

Hypothermia and its management are examined and logical explanations are given for discarding many traditional views. Hypothermia is classified according to physiological changes, and a practical approach is suggested for management.

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.

Accidental hypothermia in a child
Pediatric Anesthesia, 1999SummaryWe report a case of severe accidental hypothermia (24.8°C) in a seven‐year‐old child due to prolonged exposure to low temperatures and temporary contact with river water. When the patient was seen in hospital, bradycardia (30·min−1), bradypnoea (5·min−1), scarcely reacting pupils, and Glasgow Coma Scale=3 were noted.

The management of accidental hypothermia
BMJ, 2009A 24 year old male surfer presented to the emergency department unconscious. Lifeguards had spotted him drifting out to sea on his surfboard. Upon return to the beach he was confused, unable to walk in a straight line, and shivering violently. He subsequently collapsed and paramedics were called.

Accidental Hypothermia in the Elderly
JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1978Like many adjustments to environmental stimuli, the adaptation to temperature changes becomes less efficient with advancing age. When exposed to cold, the aged do not increase their heat production as well as do the young. Nor are they able to control as effectively their heat loss by peripheral vasoconstriction.
