This is the first pre-specified analysis of a large clinical trial to report the association of low body temperature and worse outcomes in patients hospitalized due to worsening HF. Among 4108 ...
Body temperature is associated with prognosis in other illnesses, and we hypothesized that low body temperature would be associated with worse outcomes in patients admitted with worsening HF.
Side positioning was associated with significantly higher body temperature and lower respiratory rate (p < 0.0001 and 0.004 respectively). No significant difference in heart rate. Respiratory rate ...
Hypothermia is when a person’s body temperature gets so low that they have reduced circulation of blood around the body, particularly to their skin. This is why the person’s skin will feel cold to ...
