Induced hypothermia does not impair coagulation system in a swine multiple trauma model

Abstract: Based on the results of the present study we suggest that mild hypothermia can be safely performed after stabilization following major trauma. Mild hypothermia has effects on the coagulation system but does not aggravate trauma-induced coagulopathy in our model. Before hypothermic treatment can be performed in the clinical setting, additional experiments with prolonged and deeper hypothermia to exclude detrimental effects are required.

“…Patients at a greater risk of chilling include the elderly, who have a reduced capacity to shiver; young children, who have a large skin surface area in relation to their body weight; people under the influence of alcohol or drugs; people being treated with, for example, β-blockers or antidepressants; and people who have suffered trauma [12]. Chilling and hypothermia affects the body’s coagulation system, so patients bleed more [13,14] and this can, therefore, be lethal in connection with trauma [15]. Drugs or alcohol can contribute to chilling due to physiological causes or due to a deterioration in judgement [16].…”
