TH is a clinically-driven
treatment modality aimed
at reducing core body
temperature.
Various arguments over
precise temperatures for
mild, moderate, deep, and
profound hypothermia go
on.
Most authors agree that
TH currently targets a goal
temperature of 32-34oC
post-CPR.

CARDIAC ARREST

As core temperature
increases NDMA receptors
are activated and increases
cellular Ca.

The use of TH in
traumatic brain injury is
gaining more acceptance
though the studies are
contradicting in terms of
outcome.
A Cochrane type review
suggested that best
evidence supports the
use of early TH.

Not an ED issue

Recommendation is
no faster than 0.5oC
per hour over 24
hours minimum.
Shivering often
needs to be
controlled.

Accidental hypothermia.
Brown DJA, Brugger H, Boyd J, Paal P.
N Engl J Med 2012;367:1930-1938.
Unlike TH accidental hypothermia (AH) is an
involuntary lowering of core body
temperature (CBT).
This is a review article of the physiology and
treatment of accidental hypothermia often far
below that which is used therapeutically.

Trauma, shock,
cerebrospinal injuries can
all impair thermoregulation
making such patients prone
to hypothermia.
Clotting factor and platelet
activity is reduced,
particularly a CBT< 34oC.
Transfusions are commonly
necessary.

Treatment:
Traditionally heparin now
supplanted by LMWH.
Coumadin is a class X drug,
fetotoxic.
TPA on a case-by-case
basis, assume a PE is the
etiology of cardiac arrest in
a pregnant patient and has
been used successfully but
often fetotoxic.

IV 1-1.5 mg/kg
IM 3-4 mg/kg
In smaller doses it is analgesic and disorienting
Once the dissociation threshold is reached additional
doses of ketamine does not deepen that effect and are
unnecessary.
At these doses there is no clinically important effect on
airway integrity, respirations, or blood pressure.

IV route:
Minimum dissociative IV dose is 1.5mg/kg with
recommended loading dose of 2mg/kg.
Repeat doses of 0.5-1mg/kg as needed.
IM route:
Minimum IM dose to reliably induce dissociation is 45mg/kg.
Repeat half or full dose as needed is typically effective
if needed in a longer procedure.

All 3 NOACs are substrates for drug transporter Pglycoprotein and can interact with such agents as
rifampin.
Rivaroxaban and apixaban are partially metabolized
by cytochrome P450 and can interact with strong
inducers of that isoenzyme.
The most important clinical issue of renal function
as there can be serious bleeding if a patients renal
function falls or they are used in patients with renal
insufficiency/failure.
