Environmental emergencies comprise acute exposure of human beings to extremes of temperature, electrical, and radiation injuries, drowning and diving, and high-altitude sickness. Of these, hypothermia, electrical injuries, and drowning are slightly more commonly encountered. However, there are some parts of the UK where scuba diving incidents are more frequent. The story of a physician surviving a temperature of 13.7°C after a 9h resuscitation effort, or various war tragedies in which thousands of soldiers died during cold exposure, etc., are well known. Hypothermia occurs when the core body temperature drops below 35°C, and the compensatory mechanism in a healthy individual is overwhelmed by the extreme exposure. This may be sometimes hastened by various types of medications affecting the thermoregulation. The management in the ED starts with basics (ABCDE). While the ABC and D are taken care of, an accurate measurement of temperature is essential, and most EDs do so by measuring an oesophageal, rectal, or bladder temperature, while the patient is being warmed. The common rhythm in a cardiac arrest associated with hypothermia is asystole. But if the patient is in VF, defibrillation is usually unsuccessful until the core temperature is well above 28–30°C. Therefore, rewarming continues alongside resuscitation and as the core temperature rises, defibrillation attempts should continue according to the UK resuscitation guidelines. The approximate death rate from drowning in the UK is 0.72/100 000 population per year. In 2005, of 435 deaths from drowning, 39 cases were between the ages of 0 and 14 years. Alcohol consumption in the vicinity of water is a major risk factor for morbidity or death by drowning. During the initial assessment, important details surrounding the incident should be obtained rapidly. The outcome of patients in cardiac arrest, who are often hypothermic as well, largely depends on how quickly CPR is initiated. The duration of CPR remains controversial in the hypothermic drowned patient—a safe approach is to continue until the core temperature reaches 35°C. This chapter includes questions on hypothermia, drowning, and some other environmental emergencies to give the reader an insight into the latest management of these situations.
