Intraoperative accidental hypothermia as a probable cause of malignant ventricular arrhythmias in an elderly patient undergoing transurethral resection of prostate: A case report. [PDF]

open access: yesHeliyon, 2023
Background: Intraoperative hypothermia is a common but severe condition that is defined as a core body temperature below 36 °C. Accidental hypothermia can produce coagulopathy, immunosuppression and peripheral hypoperfusion that can ultimately lead to ...

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

open access: yesScand J Trauma Resusc Emerg Med, 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]

open access: yesJ 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
