ABSTRACT Background Primary graft dysfunction (PGD) represents a leading cause of mortality in patients undergoing donation after brain death (DBD) orthotopic heart transplantation (OHT), requiring timely escalation to mechanical circulatory support. There is a lack of nationwide data regarding PGD after donation after circulatory death (DCD). Here, we

Severe Accidental Hypothermia Managed with Continuous Venovenous Hemofiltration
“Accidental hypothermia” refers to a decrease in the core body temperature from normal (35°C or 95°F) due to environmental exposure.1 Accidental hypothermia is subdivided into mild (32°C–35°C), moderate (28°C–32°C), and severe hypothermia (

Role of calcium desensitization in the treatment of myocardial dysfunction after deep hypothermic circulatory arrest [PDF]
Introduction Rewarming from deep hypothermic circulatory arrest (DHCA) produces calcium desensitization by troponin I (cTnI) phosphorylation which results in myocardial dysfunction.

Error Traps in the Intrahospital Transport of Critically Ill and Anesthetized Children
ABSTRACT Intrahospital transport of anesthetized and critically ill children is a routine event that carries myriad risks. Patients with a vast array of conditions are transported between the intensive care unit, procedural and diagnostic imaging suites, emergency department, and other areas. Given this complexity, the range of potential adverse events

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

ECG Changes Due to Hypothermia Developed After Drowning: Case Report
Drowning is one of the fatal accidents frequently encountered during the summer and is the most common cause of accidental death in the world. Anoxia, hypothermia, and metabolic acidosis are mainly responsible for morbidty.

History of accidental hypothermia
Death from exposure to cold has been recognised for thousands of years but hypothermia as a clinical condition was not generally recognised until the mid-20th century and then only in extreme conditions such as immersion in cold water or snow. In the UK, hypothermia in less extreme conditions was not generally recognised until the 1960s. Recognition of
