  • Title: Medical problems from cold exposure.
    Author: Dembert ML.
    Journal: Am Fam Physician; 1982 Jan; 25(1):99-106. PubMed ID: 7055030.
    Abstract:
    Problems resulting from cold exposure can be successfully treated when a coordinated emergency medical transport system and appropriate equipment are available, as well as medical personnel knowledgeable in the management of frostbite and hypothermia. Clinical suspicion of these disorders is essential. Profoundly hypothermic individuals with no recordable vital signs have been resuscitated after controlled, rapid rewarming measures and the use of emergency life-support systems.
