Sažetak
During 1993-1998. 14 elderly patients, 8 females and 6 males aged 65-88 years were treated for hypothermia. Rectal temperature on admission was 20-34, 9 deg. C. Sopor and various grades of coma were present in 2 and 10 respectively. Arterial hypotension and shock were recorded in 5 and 9 patients respectively. Increased serum creatinine level was found in 8 patients. In 2 patients the parameters of renal failure were analyzed: in one the renal failure index (RFI) was in a range of functional oliguria and acute renal failure, as excretional fraction of filtered sodium. Twelve out of 14 patients died within 1 and 216 hours from admission. There was no correlation between body temperature and serum creatinine level, either in severely or moderate hypothermic patients.
