(35.8 C) to 100.degrees F. (37.8 C) with an average of 98.6 degrees F. (37 C,). Skin surface fat and superficial muscle layers act as an insulating "shell" for the "core" of vital organs (heart, lungs, liver, kidneys, etc.). Heat may be lost to the environment by direct contact (conduction), air movement (convection), infrared energy emission (radiation), the con- version of liquid (sweat) to a gas (evaporation) and exhalation of heated, humidified air from the lungs (respiration). Most, heat is dissipated through the skin, which can vary its blood flow 100 fold. The skin and outer fat layers truly act as a protective shell when the blood vessels constrict in response to cold. HEAT LOSS FROM CONDUCTION IS INCREASED FIVE FOLD IN WET CLOTHING AND TWENTY-FIVE FOLD IN COLD WATER IMMER- SION. "Windchill" refers to the in- crease in the rate of heat loss (convec- tion) that occurs when a victim is ex- posed to; moving air. Immersion hypothermia occurs when a person is rapidly plunged into cold water. The cold water rapidly cools the muscles and the victim loses the ability to swim or tread water. Any person pulled from cold water should be presumed to be hypothermic. Hypothermia leads to physiologic responses which correspond roughly to different body temperatures. The signs and symptoms are: MILD HYPOTHERMIA (95 - 98.6 degrees F. or 35 - 37 degrees C.) : sensa- tion of cold; shivering; teeth chatter- ing; normal speech; alert and awake; increased heart rate; frequent urina- tion; slight incoordination in hand movements. MODERATE HYPOTHERMIA (90 - 95 degrees F. or 32.2 - 35 degrees C.) : in- creasing muscular incoordination; stumbling gait; decreased or loss of shivering; weaknesses; apathy/ drowsiness/confusion; slurred speech; disheveled appearance. SEVERE HYPOTHERMIA (85 - 90 degrees F. or 29.4 - 32.2 degrees C.) : loss of shivering; confusion progressing to coma (unconsciousness) ; inability to walk or follow commands; frequent falling; paradoxical undressing (inap- propriate behavior) ; complaints of loss of vision; incomprehensible speech. PROFOUND HYPOTHERMIA )below 85 degrees F. or 29.4 degrees C.) : rigid muscles; decreased blood pressure; decreased heart rate; decreased respirations; dilated pupils; ap- pearance of death. ANY PERSON WHO IS FOUND IN A COLD ENVIRONMENT SHOULD BE SUSPECTED OF SUFFERING FROM HYPOTHERMIA. THE MOST LIKE- LY CLUE TO A HYPOTHERMIC STATE IS ALTERED MENTAL STATUS. Never leave a victim of even . milk hyothermia to fend for himself. Because judgement is impaired and because the cooling process accelerates as the temperature drops, the situation .can worsen rapidly. MEASURE THE VICTIM'S TEMPERATURE. This must be done with a thermometer that reads below 94 degrees F'. (34.4 C. ), a lower cut off than that of most household thermometers. Hypothermia thermometers are available.. Unless the victim has suf- fered a full cardiac arrest, hypother- mia may not be harmful. THE BURDEN OF RESCUE IS TO TRANSPORT AND PREWARM THE VICTIM IN SUCH A WAY SO AS NOT TO CAUSE VENTRICULAR FIBRILA- TION, WHERE THE HEART QUIVERS AND DOES NOT PUMP ANY BLOOD. The rules of therapy apply: 1. Handle all, patients gently. Rough handling can cause ventricular fibrilation. 2. If the victim is unconscious, pulled from the water or may have fallen, con- sider the possibility that his neck is broken. Keep the mouth clear, the air- way open and neck immobilized. 3. Prevent the victim. from becoming any colder. Provide a shelter or gently bring the victim indoors. Remove all wet clothing and replace with dry clothing. Cover the victim's head and neck. Insulate the victim from above AND BELOW with blankets or a sleep- ing pad. If possible, put him in a sleep- ing bag, prewarmed by a rescuer's body heat. Hot water in bottles, WELL INSULATED WITH CLOTHING TO PREVENT SKIN BURNS, may be plac- ed near areas of high heat transfer, such as the neck, chest and groin.

By Steve Cooke careful with commercial chemical "hot' packs" and mechanical fiandwarmers, . they may burn the skin. 4. Do not attempt to warm the patient by having him exercise, rubbing his arms and legs or immersing him in warm water. This is "rough handling". 5. IF THE PERSON SHOWS ANY SIGNS OF LIFE, DO NOT INITIATE THE CHEST COMPRESSIONS OF CPR. If the -victim is breathing, even at subnormal rate, then his heart is beating, even if you can't feel a pulse. Because hypothermia is protective, the victim does not require a "normal" heart rate, respiratory rate and blood pressure. Pumping on the chest un- necessarily may cause ventricular fibrilation. If the victim shows no signs of life whatsoever, then CPR may be started if it can be continued until the victim is brought to the hospital. IF THE VICTIM IS BREATHING AT A RATE OF LESS THAN 6 - 7 BREATHS PER MINUTE, YOU SHOULD BEGIN MOUTH-TO-MOUTH BREATHING. If help is on the way ( within one to two hours) and there are no signs of life, or if you are in doubt, you should begin standard CPR. THE SEVERE HYPOTHERMIC CANNOT BE REWARMED IN THE FIELD. If a hypothermic victim suffers a cardiac arrest in the wilderness, transport should be the first priority.

If you are the only person pre- sent, do not bother with CPR, because you will not be 'able to resusciatate the victim until he is rewarmed. REMEMBER, NO ONE IS DEAD UN- ° TIL HE IS WARM AND DEAD. If a victim is pulled from icy waters and ap- pears to be dead, the same rules apply. To prevent hypothermia: 1. Carry adequate food and clothing; anticipate the worst possible weather conditions; dress in layers; use the new synthetic fabric's that retain warmth when moist; carry windproof and waterproof outer garments. Wear a hat or balaclava; in very cold weather, over 50 per cent of generated heat may be lost by radiation from thel uncovered head. 2. Do not become exhausted;,9 avoid over-exertion; do not sit down in the snow without insulation; seek shelter in times of extreme cold and high winds. 3. Do no become dehydrated. Drink at least 3 - 4 liters of fluid daily (coffee may increase urination). Ingesting snow worsens hypothermia. Do not skip meals. DO NOT CONSUME ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES IN COLD WEATHER. They cause an initial sen- sation of warmth because of dilation of superficial skin blood vessels, which markedly contribute to heat loss.
