The development and validation of a “5A” severity scale for predicting in-hospital mortality after accidental hypothermia from J-point registry data

open access: yesJournal of Intensive Care, 2019
Background Accidental hypothermia is a serious condition that requires immediate and accurate assessment to determine severity and treatment. Currently, accidental hypothermia is evaluated using the Swiss grading system which uses core body temperature ...

Accidental Hypothermia [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Army Medical Corps, 2005
Hypothermia is a multi-system disorder that significantly increases morbidity and mortality in the injured patient. It is an environmental hazard that can kill in its own right. The most difficult differentiation and management decisions are likely to be with victims in Stage II or Stage III hypothermia.

Maternal hypothermia from environmental exposure in the third trimester

open access: yesInternational Journal of Circumpolar Health, 2020
A primigravida at 32 weeks gestation developed hypothermia after prolonged exposure to the elements at -30.0°C. Her core temperature dropped to 29.8°C with associated foetal bradycardia.

An evaluation of the Swiss staging model for hypothermia using case reports from the literature [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
BACKGROUND: Core body temperature is used to stage and guide the management of hypothermic patients, however obtaining accurate measurements of core temperature is challenging, especially in the pre-hospital context.

Successful resuscitation for cardiac arrest due to severe accidental hypothermia accompanied by mandibular rigidity: a case of cold stiffening mimicking rigor mortis

open access: yesInternational Journal of Emergency Medicine, 2018
Background In cases of severe accidental hypothermia, it was recommended that resuscitation should be continued until the patient has rewarmed, as hypothermia itself can preserve cerebral function, and hypothermic cardiac arrest is reversible.
