Rewarming from severe accidental hypothermia with circulatory arrest.
This case report demonstrates successful cardiopulmonary and cerebral resuscitation (CPCR) of a young male explored 15 hours following a suicide attempt (carbamazepine intoxication) in deep hypothermia (19 degrees C) with circulatory arrest. An extracorporeal circuit was used to rewarm the patient's blood. Weaning from extracorporeal circulation (ECC) was successful and without complications as...
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...
متن کاملExtracorporeal Rewarming From Accidental Hypothermia of Patient With Suspected Trauma
The use of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation is a new approach to rewarming patients with severe hypothermia and hemodynamic instability. There are, however, many questions regarding qualification for this technique in case of suspected or confirmed trauma.A male with confirmed accidental hypothermia (25°C) and after successful cardiopulmonary resuscitation from in-hospital cardiac arrest was...
متن کاملNeurologic Injury Associated with Rewarming from Hypothermia: Is Mild Hypothermia on Bypass Better than Deep Hypothermic Circulatory Arrest?
Many known risk factors for adverse cardiovascular and neurological outcomes in children with congenital heart defects (CHD) are not modifiable; however, the temperature and blood flow during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), are two risk factors, which may be altered in an attempt to improve long-term neurological outcomes. Deep hypothermic circulatory arrest, traditionally used for aortic arch re...
متن کاملAccidental deep hypothermia with cardiac arrest. Prompt complete recovery after rewarming by extracorporeal circulation. Case report.
BACKGROUND Deep accidental hypothermia (core temperature <28 degrees C) is an uncommon medical emergency requiring rapid active core rewarming. Extracorporeal circulation has become the treatment of choice for deep hypothermic patients with cardiac arrest. CASE REPORT We report on a 30-year-old patient who suffered from deep accidental hypothermia (core temperature 24.8 degrees C) and cardiac...
