Facts and Fiction: The Impact of Hypothermia on Molecular Mechanisms following Major Challenge

open access: yesMediators of Inflammation, 2012
Numerous multiple trauma and surgical patients suffer from accidental hypothermia. While induced hypothermia is commonly used in elective cardiac surgery due to its protective effects, accidental hypothermia is associated with increased posttraumatic ...

Successful resuscitation of an elderly man with deep accidental hypothermia using portable extracorporeal circulation in the emergency department: a case report

open access: yesJournal of Medical Case Reports, 2008
Introduction Deep accidental hypothermia (body temperature below 28°C) is rare and has a high mortality rate. Successful resuscitation usually occurs in the young, but a prompt intervention using a portable extracorporeal cardiopulmonary circulation ...

Role of calcium desensitization in the treatment of myocardial dysfunction after deep hypothermic circulatory arrest [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Introduction Rewarming from deep hypothermic circulatory arrest (DHCA) produces calcium desensitization by troponin I (cTnI) phosphorylation which results in myocardial dysfunction.

Changes in the PQRST intervals and heart rate variability associated with rewarming in two newborns undergoing hypothermia therapy. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
BACKGROUND: Little is known about the effects of hypothermia therapy and subsequent rewarming on the PQRST intervals and heart rate variability (HRV) in term newborns with hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE).

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.

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.

Factors contributing to acute accidental hypothermia (literature review)

open access: yesМедицина неотложных состояний, 2022
Risk factors for hypothermia include conditions that reduce thermogenesis, disrupt thermoregulation, and increase heat loss. The main groups of risk factors for hypothermia are: low ambient temperature; periodically repeated exposition to cold; reduction

Consensus must be found on intravenous fluid therapy management in trauma patients [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Introduction: Trauma is an important cause of death among young people and 30-40% of this mortality rate is due to hypovolemic shock, intensified by trauma's lethal triad: Hypothermia, Acidosis, and Coagulopathy. Nurses are responsible for managing fluid
