Once the cardiopulmonary recovery has been achieved, it is extremely important to warm the body using a blanket and TPAs Shift the person to a shore hospital if necessary, in case the situation allows Effects of Hypothermia A normal human body temperature is considered to be at 35-37 ̊°C...
In NICU, the wound was covered with an electric warming blanket set at 37 °C (CosyTherm mattress, Inspiration healthcare, Rotherham, UK). Monitoring setup The ISP probe was connected to a Codman ICP box linked by a ML221 amplifier to a PowerLab running LabChart software (version 7.3.5...
Hypothermia can be achieved by immersing the patient in a cold-water bath, wrapping the body in ice bags, using special blankets in which cold water circulates, or placing the patient in a special installation into which cold air is forced. Also used are various methods of chilling the bloo...
An example of this is the use of forced-air warming blankets. The method is most effective when the patient is covered up as much as possible with the warming equipment. The use of different warming equipment together has been proven efficient as well as wrapping in the patients' extremities...

(||) Warm environment, chemical, electrical, or forced air heating packs or blankets, and warm IV fluids (38–42 °C). In case of cardiac instability refractory to medical management, consider rewarming with ECLS. (¶) If the decision is made to stop at an intermediate hospital to ...
A cooling blanket was used to lower the patient's core temperature to 32 degrees C to 33 degrees C. Hypothermia was induced within 24 hours of infarction onset and was discontinued when the CT scan showed a subsiding mass effect and was followed by slow rewarming (2-5 days). Patients ...
The use of the intravascular heat exchange apparatus in the present invention generally permits hypothermia to be induced more rapidly and with substantially greater control than by noninvasive means such as wrapping the patient in a hypothermia blanket. The temperature to which the patient is cooled...
Eleven-day survivors were rewarmed beginning at 20 h after ROSC at a rate of 1°C/h over 4 h by adjusting the temperature of the cooling blanket until the rectal temperature reached normother- mia (38.5–39°C). Fentanyl was decreased by 5–10 g/kg/h and pancuronium was decreased...
Treatment of Hypothermia Warming the body from the inside, by warming the air to breathe and by using warm fluids Treatment outside the hospital In the early stages of hypothermia, drying the body, changing into warm, dry clothing, being covered with warm blankets, and drinking hot beverages ...
