Cold Exposure

Frostbite in the hands was present in 11.4% of men and 7.1% of women, cold sensitivity was present in 9.7 and 14.4%, and Raynaud's phenomenon was present in 11.0% of men and 14.0% of women. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  • Hypothermia

    KEYWORDS: Difference in color; Hypothermia; Oximeter; Oxyhemoglobin saturation [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

    Temperatures for mild, moderate, and severe hypothermia generally range from: Mild hypothermia: 89-95 degrees Farenheit Moderate hypothermia: 82-89 degrees Farenheit Severe hypothermia: Lower than 82 degrees Farenheit Because response to hypothermia varies [webmd.com]

    Quick Summary: Hypothermia is a condition in which the body temperature drops below 95 deg. F (35 deg. C). [dovemed.com]

  • Shivering

    All measurements were analysed across 4 periods: warm period, at 31% and at 64% of individual s cold exposure time until shivering occurred, and at the shivering threshold. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  • Fulminant Sepsis

    Responsible for his decline was a fulminate sepsis, diagnosed upon fever, increased C-reactive protein, thrombocyte decline, multi-organ failure, rhabdomyolysis, growth of S. aureus on blood culture, and autopsy. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  • Nocturia

    Nocturia ( 2 voids per night) and nocturnal urine production were determined using a urination diary and nocturnal urine collection, respectively. RESULTS: The mean sd age of participants was 71.9 7.1 years, and the prevalence of nocturia was 30.8%. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

    The mean age of the participants was 72 years and nocturia was present in 30.8%. [bjuinternational.com]

  • Sexual Dysfunction

    OBJECTIVE: Chronic abacterial prostatitis/pelvic pain syndrome (CP/CPPS) is characterized by pain, voiding and sexual dysfunction persisting fo r 3 months. The symptoms tend to occur in relapses of varying length. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  • Anuria

    Upon admission, the patient complained of a tingling sensation and numbness in the both upper and lower extremities with anuria. The serum blood urea nitrogen, creatinine, creatinine kinase, and myoglobin levels were elevated. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  • Pseudomonas

    While studying the microtubule toxicity mechanisms of the exotoxin Y from Pseudomonas aeruginosa in pulmonary microvascular endothelial cells, we observed that some endothelial microtubules were very difficult to disassemble in the cold. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Subjects were re-evaluated after each treatment period. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Cardiopulmonary resuscitation procedures should not be abandoned until the body temperature is more than 30 Grad C, because the prognosis in cases of accidental hypothermia without associated disease is excellent if cardiac function can be re-established [bisp-surf.de]

Prognosis The prognosis depends on the severity and duration of the cold environment and the presence of any risk factors. [patient.info]

The reduction in blood flow and consequent fall in skin temperature contribute to the etiology of cold injuries (Purdue and Hunt, 1986). [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Epidemiological surveys of body temperature of older persons taken while in their own homes do not indicate a large incidence of hypothermia (Collins et al., 1977; Fox et al., 1973). [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Epidemiological research suggests that even in otherwise innocuous environmental conditions, hypothermia can occur. [uiltexas.org]

Our results warrant further study on pathophysiological mechanisms and suggest the need for confirmatory prevalence studies to support national public health planning. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Pathophysiology of Tissue Freezing - As tissue begins to freeze, ice crystals are formed within the cells. [princeton.edu]

Further attacks were prevented by treatment with colchicine. Attention should therefore be paid to the possibility of atypical FMF symptoms, which should be accurately diagnosed by genetic analyses to prevent the development of amyloidosis. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Prevention Cold damage is usually preventable, if you take sensible precautions. [healthand.com]
