   Radiation- loss of heat to the environment due to the temperature gradient (this occurs only as long as the ambient temperature is below 98.6). Factors important in radiant heat loss are the surfac...

   Conduction - through direct contact between objects, molecular transference of heat energy

   Convection - is a process of conduction where one of the objects is in motion. Molecules against the surface are heated, move away, and are replaced by new molecules which are also heated. The rate...

   Cold Challenge- (negative factors) 1. Temperature 2. Wet (rain, sweat, water) 3. Wind (blowing, moving, e.g. biking) Total = Cold Challenge Heat Retention- (positive factors) 1. Size/shape (Eskimo vs. Masai) 2. Insulation (layering/type) 3. Fat (as insulation) 4. Shell/core (shunt blood to core) shell acts as a thermal barrier Total = Heat Retentio...

   1. Heat is both required and produced at the cellular level. The environment acts as either a heating or a cooling force on the body. The body must be able to generate heat, retain heat, and discharge heat depending on the body activity and ambient external temperature. 2. Body temperature is a measure of the metabolism - the general level of chemi...

   1. Vasodilation- increases surface blood flow, increases heat loss (when ambient temperature is less that body temperature). Maximal vasodilation can increase cutaneous blood flow to 3000 ml/minute (average flow is 300-500 ml/minute). 2. Vasoconstriction- decreases blood flow to periphery, decreases heat loss. Maximal vasoconstriction can decrease ...

Conditions Leading to Hypothermia 1. Cold temperatures 2. Improper clothing and equipment 3. Wetness 4. Fatigue, exhaustion 5. Dehydration 6. Poor food intake 7. No knowledge of hypothe...

   The basic principles of rewarming a hypothermic victim are to conserve the heat they have and replace the body fuel they are burning up to generate that heat. If a person is shivering, they have the ability to rewarm themselves at a rate of 2 degrees C per hour.

   1. Reduce Heat Loss 1. Additional layers of clothing 2. Dry clothing 3. Increased physical activity 4. Shelter 2. Add Fuel & Fluids It is essential to keep a hypothermic person adequately hydrated and fueled. a. Food types 1. Carbohydrates - 5 calories/gram - quickly released into blood stream for sudden brief heat surge - these are the best to use...

   1. Reduce Heat Loss 1. Hypothermia Wrap: The idea is to provide a shell of total insulation for the patient. No matter how cold, patients can still internally rewarm themselves much more efficiently than any external rewarming. Make sure the patient is dry, and has a polypropylene layer to minimize sweating on the skin. The person must be protected...

   Is a situation in which the core temperature actually decreases during rewarming. This is caused by peripheral vessels in the arms and legs dilating if they are rewarmed. This dilation sends this very cold, stagnate blood from the periphery to the core further decreasing core temperature which can lead to death. In addition, this blood also is very...

   When a person is in severe hypothermia they may demonstrate all the accepted clinical signs of death: 1. Cold 2. Blue skin 3. Fixed and dilated pupils 4. No discernable pulse 5. No discernable breathing 6. Comatose & unresponsive to any stimuli 7. Rigid muscles But they still may be alive in a "metabolic icebox" and can be revived. You job as a res...
