Predisposition in Trauma Patients • Exposure (field and trauma bay) • Opening of body cavities • Blood loss • Infusion of cold fluids • Limited heat production • Shock • Sedation, anesthesia, EtOH and drugs
Hypothermia Therapeutic/controlled Exposure/uncontrolled
Temperature Levels • Mild 32-36oC • Moderate 28-32oC • Deep 10-20oC • Profound 5-10oC • Ultraprofound <5oC
Dying Patterns from Hemorrhage Limited FR Hypothermia Pharmacologic hibernation Uncontrolled HS Maintain pulse Transport Delayed Resuscitation Resuscitative Surgery Lose pulse Hypothermic Pharmacologic Preservation “Suspended Animation” Allow circulatory arrest Exsanguinating Hemorrhage

Hypothermia is a double-edged sword.
Hypothermia and Trauma • High ISS • Hypothermia • Decreased shivering, thermoregulation, heat production • Coagulopathy and acidosis • "Damage control laparotomy"
Hypothermia - complications • Coagulopathy • Platelets -number and function, TxB2 • Elevated PT and PTT • ?Increased fibrinolysis • Dysrhythmias and hypotension • Metabolic acidosis • Infections
Preclinical Pig Study • Pressure-controlled HS • Hemodilution • Normothermia vs hypothermia (34oC) • Laparotomy • Excise edge of liver • Measure blood loss • Coags, platelets, TEG, ACT Wu, in preparation.

Hypothermia and TRISS • UCSD • 173 with ISS >9 and known core temp • Hypothermic pt: n=37 • More hypotensive • Survival as predicted by TRISS • No difference in ICU days for survivors Steinemann, J Trauma, 1990.
Prospective Hypothermia Study • Harborview Medical Center, Seattle • Core temp <34.5oC and PAC needed • Standard Tx • Warm fluids, gases, air blanket, hat • Treatment • Continuous arteriovenous rewarming Gentilello, et al. Ann Surg, 1997.
