Previous triad of death = hypothermia, acidosis, and coagulopathy. HypoCa is common in trauma patients and is associated with poor outcomes. Liver dysfunction, secondary cirrhosis, critical illness, trauma, and hypothermia reduce citrate metabolism. Hypothermia also leads to hypoCa. Whole blood does contain less citrate.

Background Therapeutic hypothermia, later rebranded as targeted temperature management, became a standard post-cardiac arrest therapy for comatose patients after two 2002 NEJM trials ( n=273 and n=77 ) suggested reducing core temperature to 32°C to 34°C markedly improved neurologic outcomes and survival.

Exposure Expose the patient in a systematic manner while keeping remaining body areas covered e.g. 1 limb at a time, to reduce the risk of hypothermia. Proper stabilization and detailed communication with the burns centre are essential for optimal patient outcomes. 2015 Jun;11(2):227-31. Assess pupillary reaction to light.
