Clinical trials: Hypothermia Due to Cold Environment
Covid19, SARS-CoV Infection
COVID-19 in Polish Ice Swimmers.
Ice swimming is an increasingly common phenomenon in Poland. It has been confirmed that it has a beneficial effect on health by increasing the natural non-specific immunity to infections.

Hypothermia Due to Cold Environment, Trauma Patients
Pulmonary Function by Litter Position
A litter is often needed to extract a person from an austere environment like the wilderness or from confined, urban spaces. A horizontal litter is generally assumed to be better for patient care, but often makes for a more…

Hypothermia Due to Cold Environment
Characterization of Corticospinal Excitability During Progressive Skin Cooling
This study characterizes the changes in corticospinal excitability that accompany basic cold stress via skin cooling that result in reduced skin or core temperature and shivering.

Hypothermia Due to Cold Environment
Prehospital Use of Forced Air Warming
Forced air warming may be a feasible strategy for prehospital rewarming of patients with accidental hypothermia. This pilot study will explore the feasibility of this technique which has not been studied outside of hospital.
