A nurse demonstrates an understanding of the risk factor for hypothermia when asking an older adult therapeutic hypothermia assessment question.

<h3>What is therapeutic hypothermia?</h3>

Remedial hypothermia is a system used to cool an individual's body to a temperature that is lower than ordinary. The method is finished after a heart failure (when the heart stops) that occurs beyond a medical services setting. The oblivious individual is cooled in the medical clinic after their breathing and heartbeat start once more. The absence of blood stream can make enduring harm the cerebrum. The individual might not be able to recover cognizance. Bringing down the internal heat level immediately after heart failure can decrease harm to the cerebrum. That raises the possibilities that the individual will recuperate. At the point when a patient goes through remedial hypothermia, it is to some degree frightening to feel how cold s/he can be to the touch. This is ordinary and is short-term. The patient's temperature will be diminished to around 91°F (33°C), roughly 7° F (4°C) lower than typical.
