AACN Clinical Issues: Advanced Practice in Acute and Critical Care, 1997
Hypothermia in the hospitalized adult may be a primary process, as in exposure, or a result of a multitude of disease processes or iatrogenic factors. The condition affects virtually every metabolic process in the body. A thorough understanding of the pathophysiology of hypothermia enables the clinician to differentiate between the hypothermic syndrome

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.

Accident and Emergency Nursing, 1994
Hypothermia may present to any department at any time. It may present as a primary or secondary illness and if not detected, and/or managed appropriately, treatment of other concurrent illnesses and patient survival may be severely compromised.

Annals of Emergency Medicine, 1993
Significant hypothermia is an increasing clinical problem that requires a rapid response with properly trained personnel and techniques. Although the clinical presentation may be such that the victim appears dead, aggressive management may allow successful resuscitation in many instances.

The American Journal of Nursing, 1983
Knowledge of the effects of hypothermia has increased greatly over the past 25 yr. Thousands of patients have been cooled intentionally in the operating room, and hundreds of thousands of living hearts have been temporarily stopped by cold cardioplegia and restarted without difficulty or apparent ill-effect. Yet in spite of the acquisition of this vast

Forensic Science, Medicine, and Pathology, 2010
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.

Therapeutic hypothermia, introduced more than 5 decades ago, remains an important neuroprotective factor in the surgery for the correction of congenital heart disease, in particular when intraoperative circulatory arrest is required. Hypothermia decreases cerebral metabolism and energy consumption and reduces the extent of degenerative processes such ...

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
