All patients were covered with a carbon-fiber resistive warming blanket and a wool blanket, but the warming blanket was activated only in those assigned to resistive heating. Core (tympanic membrane) and oral temperatures, heart rate, pain, fear, and overall satisfaction of patients were compared between the 2 groups on arrival at a hospital.RESULTS:Hypothermia was noted in 80 patients at the time of rescue. Mean initial core temperatures were 35.4 degrees C (95% confidence interval [CI], 35.2 degrees C - 35.6 degrees C) in the patients who received passive warming and 35.3 degrees C (95% CI, 35.1 degrees C - 35.5 degrees C) in those who received resistive heating. From the time of rescue until arrival at the hospital, mean core temperature decreased 0.4 degrees C/h (95% CI, 0.3 degrees C/h - 0.5 degrees C/h) with passive warming, whereas it increased 0.8 degrees C/h (95% CI, 0.7 degrees C/h - 0.9 degrees C/h) with resistive heating. Oral and tympanic membrane temperatures were similar. Mean heart rate decreased 23 beats/min in those assigned to resistive heating but remained unchanged in those assigned to passive warming. Patients in the resistive heating group felt warmer, had less pain and anxiety, and overall were more satisfied with their care.CONCLUSIONS:Oral temperatures are sufficiently accurate for field use. Hypothermia is common even in persons with minor trauma. Resistive heating during transport augments thermal comfort, increases core temperature, reduces pain and anxiety, and improves overall patient satisfaction.
