Abstract
Hypothermia caused significant adverse effects on cardiac function and systemic hemodynamics, which returned to baseline with rewarming. Ethanol intoxication had no additional effects on systemic hemodynamics during cooling; however, it caused more prolonged depression of cardiac function and adverse effects on systemic hemodynamics during rewarming. These data may have implications for resuscitation of ethanol-intoxicated victims of accidental hypothermia.
