Hypothermia: Recognizing and Responding to a Cold-Induced Emergency

Although Hypothermia is the last step within the M.A.R.C.H. algorithm, it doesn't make it any less of an importance to treat. Significant lowering of body temperature to a point your body can't compensate for can become very dangerous, very quickly, and without being able to warm up quickly the consequences could be dire. Hypothermia can be caused simply by not wearing enough clothing in cold conditions or being stuck in wet clothing in the cold from either sweating or a boating accident.

Help treat those effected by hypothermia with the right tools such as heated blankets for when the worst case scenarios happen, and help improve recovery chances by keeping them warm  before and during transport to a medical facility. 

Identifying Hypothermia and Its Symptoms

Symptoms of Hypothermia

  • The symptoms of hypothermia can vary but often include intense shivering, slurred speech, slow breathing, and fatigue.
  • Recognizing these signs early is key to effective treatment and preventing the condition from worsening.


Hypothermia Body Temperature

  • Hypothermia is when a patient's body temperature falls below the normal range, typically below 95°F (35°C).
  • Monitoring hypothermia body temperature is crucial in assessing the severity of the condition and the urgency of treatment.


Treating Hypothermia and Providing First Aid

Hypothermia How to Treat

  • To treat hypothermia, gradually rewarm the person. This can include moving them to a warmer environment, adding layers of dry clothing, and using warm blankets.
  • Avoid rapid rewarming or massaging the limbs, as this can lead to complications.


Hypothermia First Aid

  • Hypothermia first aid involves several steps:
  • Remove any wet clothing and replace it with dry, warm layers.
  • If the person is conscious, provide warm (not hot) beverages to help increase body temperature.
  • Seek medical attention as soon as possible, especially if the person is unconscious or shows severe symptoms.


Hypothermia is a medical emergency that requires immediate attention. Understanding its symptoms and knowing how to provide first aid can make a significant difference in the outcome. It's essential to act quickly and efficiently, as hypothermia can rapidly progress, leading to life-threatening complications. Whether you're an outdoor enthusiast, a first responder, or simply someone looking to be prepared, knowledge about hypothermia is invaluable.
