Myocardial function in severe hypothermia.
GENERALIZED hypothermia, as employed in cardiac surgery,' involves a number of factors, some of which are of benefit, others detrimental to myocardial performance. For example, the decreased arterial pressure and the increased blood viscosity tend to reduce coronary blood flow. On the other hand, the reduced metabolic rate of heart muscle, the diminished cardiac work, and the lengthened time fo...
متن کاملSevere hypothermia in dengue.
ones are severe sepsis, hypothyroidism, adrenal insufficiency, head injury and exposure to severe cold. Dengue can also present with hypothermia when the platelet count starts to drop. This could signify an alarming sign and caution the clinicians to monitor the patient carefully. A study by Lee et al1 showed that the causes of fatality other than dengue shock syndrome in patients with severe d...
متن کاملMyocardial failure in experimental hypothermia.
Hypothermic animals subjected to total venous inflow occlusion and open eardiotomy develop elevations in right atrial mean pressure and postmortem evidences of myocaidial failure. Acetyl strophanthidin, given before inflow stasis, prevented myocardial failure and increased survival. Myocardial failure was attributed to anoxia resulting from decreased coronary blood flow and alterations in the o...
متن کامل[Management of severe accidental hypothermia].
Accidental hypothermia is an environmental condition with basic principles of classification and resuscitation that apply to mountain, sea or urban scenarios. Along with coagulopathy and acidosis, hypothermia belongs to the lethal triad of trauma victims requiring critical care. A customized healthcare chain is involved in its management, extending from on site assistance to intensive care, car...
متن کاملRewarming After Severe Accidental Hypothermia
Although accidental hypothermia is considered a totally preventable cause of death, severe hypothermia (<28 o C) carries a mortality rate about 21%. That’s why conventional rewarming techniques such as using a warming blanket, warm intravenous saline, nasogastric lavage, continuous bladder irrigation and thoracic lavage via chest tubes are often considered inefficient and extracorporeal circula...
