Everything You Wanted to Know About Hypothermia

Officially, hypothermia is the term for excessive lowering of the body's temperature below the level required to maintain metabolism and vital functions.

There's a common misconception that a symptom of hypothermia is an elevated body temperature. However, when a person is experiencing hypothermia, they lose a lot of heat, causing their body temperature to drop below 35 degrees Celsius. Sometimes, just spending 10 minutes in the cold without proper clothing can lead to hypothermia.

The danger of hypothermia lies in the fact that a person may not realize they are starting to freeze. That's why it's easier to prevent this condition than to try to warm up someone who is already hypothermic.

Hypothermia can be identified by specific symptoms:

• Strong shivering of limbs and the whole body — this is the body's healthy response to cold, but if the shivering stops as the body temperature drops, it's a dangerous sign.
• Changes in speech — speech becomes unclear, and lips move poorly.
• Slower pulse and breathing.
• Impaired coordination of movements, difficulty in bending fingers.
• Gradual weakness leading to drowsiness.
• In severe hypothermia, confusion of consciousness may occur — the person responds to questions inaccurately and talks about events from the past.

Why don't people with hypothermia understand the full danger? Firstly, the symptoms progress gradually, and there's no clear point when a person realizes the seriousness of the situation. Secondly, hypothermia affects the brain's function, making it difficult for the person to assess their condition.

All processes in the body function normally within a temperature range of 36.1°C to 37.2°C. When hypothermia sets in, it first affects the heart, blood vessels, nervous system, and lungs. Without timely help, such as using a thermal blanket, cardiac arrest may occur.

Preventing Hypothermia

When on duty or in combat, it's important to choose the right clothing, layering it properly. An essential accessory for defenders who spend extended periods in the cold is hand warmers. In the Shower Pack store catalog, you can find hand warmers from the brands Take Hot and HAAGO.

Take Hot hand warmers actively generate heat for up to 10 hours, starting when they come into contact with air. These hand warmers can be placed in pockets or gloves to quickly warm up your hands and prevent heat loss. They are compact and heat up within minutes. Each pack includes two warmers.

HAAGO hand warmers operate on a similar principle. In the package, you will find two warmers that activate heat within the first few minutes of contact with oxygen.
