abnormally low body temperature; specifically, below 35°C
If someone has hypothermia, their body temperature has become dangerously low as a result of being in severe cold for a long time. a serious medical condition caused by extreme cold (hypo- + therme ). Abnormally low body temperature, with slowing of physiological activity. It is artificially induced (usually with ice baths) for certain surgical procedures and cancer treatments. Accidental hypothermia can result from falling into cold water or overexposure in cold weather. Underlying conditions such as cerebrovascular disease or intoxication increase the risk from exposure. Hypothermia is serious when body temperature is below 95 °F (35 °C) and an emergency below 90 °F (32.2 °C), at which point shivering stops. Pulse, respiration, and blood pressure are depressed. Even when the victim appears dead, revival may be possible with very gradual passive rewarming (e.g., with blankets). See also frostbite
A serious physical condition caused by a lowering of the core body temperature Symptoms include lack of coordination, thickness of speech, irrationality, blueness of skin, dilation of pupils, decrease in heart andrespiratory rate, extreme weakness,and uncontrolled shivering Victims often become unconscious and sometimes die First Aid: Quickly strip off wet clothes and surround victim skin-to-skin in a bare-body sandwich; administer hot drink, etc
The reduction in temperature of the body core to below 35C Occurs as a result of exposure to extreme cold
This situation occurs when the core temperature of one's body falls below normal It is the failure of the body to maintain adequate production of heat under conditions of extreme cold
A physical condition where the body loses heat faster than it can produce it
a victim's core body temperature drops due to heat loss exceeding heat production prevent heat loss by: removing wet clothes getting out of the wind adding insulating layers mild hypothermia: early signs are shivering, slurred speech, and confusion victim can still produce sufficient heat, and should drink lots of water and eat energy rich food abort the trip immediately severe hypothermia: victim is in a stupor or is unconscious and cannot produce sufficient heat victim should not be moved, but given external heat sources to stay alive - extremely difficult in the field prevention: dress warmly eat energy foods and drink lots of water often avoid getting chilled at rest stops avoid becoming exhausted
Abnormally low body temperature
temperature below normal
a rapid, progressive mental and physical collapse that accompanies the lowering of body temperature
A procedure that lowers a patient's body temperature during surgery It stops all blood circulation so the surgeon can safely repair the heart
when a persons body temperature falls below normal It causes muscle weakness, fatigue, and fuzzy thinking Then the heart and lungs may stop working and the person (or animal) may die
the bodily state in which heat loss exceeds the ability of the body to produce heat and body temperature decreases below normal levels
Occurs when the core temperature of one's body falls below normal It is the failure of the body to maintain adequate production of heat under conditions of extreme cold
The loss of core body temperature through exposure to cold and wet, and especially wind Potentially fatal Prevention is much better than cure: dress warmly and eat well
is a condition brought on when the body temperature drops to less than 32ºC or 90ºF
A decrease in the body temperature
A dangerous loss of body warmth, which can cause death
A body temperature that reaches significantly below normal (usually below 95 degrees)
low core body temperature  
abnormally low core body temperature to 32° C (95° F)
occurs when the body temperature drops below 35°C when exposed to extremely cold temperatures or when immersed in cold water If the body temperature drops to 30-33°C, death can occur!
subnormal body temperature
Excessive lowering of body temperature generally caused by prolonged exposure to cold or when the body has become wet Hypothermia can occur at temperatures well above freezing as easily as at temperatures below freezing
{i} condition in which the body temperature is much lower than normal
A body temperature colder than normal (37°C/98 6°F) that results from diving without adequate wetsuit or drysuit thermal insulation in cold water Severe problems start to manifest when body temperature reaches about 35°C (95°F) Divers stop shivering at the onset of hypothermia
When the body temperature drops below 35 5 degrees Celsius (95 degrees Fahrenheit)
A life: threatening condition in which the body's temperature are subnormal and the entire body cools
