  • Hypothermia

Hypothermia

Hypothermia occurs when the body loses more heat than it can absorb or produce, leading to an inability to maintain homeostasis and proper bodily function. While hypothermia is often caused by exposure to excessive cold or insufficient heat production, certain external factors can also increase the risk of developing this condition. If not treated promptly, hypothermia can be potentially fatal. Therefore, healthcare professionals must be familiar with its various presentations, potential causes, and management strategies. This educational activity for healthcare professionals reviews the pathophysiology, etiology, recognition, management, and prevention of hypothermia. It aims to enhance the learner’s competence in evaluating and treating patients with this condition. By participating in this activity, clinicians will be better equipped to contribute effectively to the multidisciplinary care of patients affected by hypothermia.
