Accidental hypothermia is defined as an unintentional decline in the core temperature below 35 degrees C. The population of patients at risk is very heterogeneous. Common thermal stressors include both primary exposures and secondary contributory diseases or injuries.

Hypothermia refers to a situation where there is a drop in body core temperature below 35 degrees C. It is a potentially fatal condition. In forensic medicine and pathology, cases of hypothermia often pose a special challenge to experts because of their complex nature, and the often absent or nonspecific nature of morphological findings.

Pediatric Emergency Care, 1992
Accidental hypothermia has produced many cases of intact survival even after prolonged cardiac arrest, but it is also often fatal. In recent years, alterations in resuscitation care that sometimes confused or discouraged resuscitation teams have largely been supplanted by an emphasis on safe, rapid, effective rewarming. Rewarming decisions and even the

Postanesthetic hypothermia is a common, significant, and costly problem in the PACU. The scope of the problem ranges from an adverse outcome for the patient to undue financial burden to the institution providing the care. All of these problems can be minimized or prevented with active warming therapy.

Resuscitative (postinsult) hypothermia is less well studied than protective-preservative (pre- and intra-arrest) hypothermia. The latter is in wide clinical use, particularly for protecting the brain during cardiac surgery. Resuscitative hypothermia was explored in the 1950s and then lay dormant until the 1980s when it was revived. This change occurred

Current Opinion in Critical Care, 2004
Recent studies demonstrating that mild therapeutic hypothermia can improve the outcome from several ischemic and traumatic insults have led to increased interest in the potential benefits of hypothermia after injury. Previous clinical studies, however, have suggested that hypothermia is detrimental to trauma patients.

Hypothermia is a preventable disorder that is being seen with increasing frequency in the United States. Awareness of the process decreases the likelihood of development and also the possibility that its presence will go undetected. Severe hypothermia is a medical emergency, but the patient often recovers fully with careful, aggressive treatment that ...
