Hypothermia: one nursing diagnosis or three?

S Summers

    Nursing Diagnosis : ND : the Official Journal of the North American Nursing Diagnosis Association
    |January 1, 1992
    PubMed
    Summary

    This study clarifies nursing diagnosis for hypothermia by identifying three types: inadvertent, accidental, and intentional. It addresses inconsistencies in defining characteristics for accurate patient care.

    Area of Science:

    • Nursing
    • Physiology

    Background:

    • The nursing diagnosis of hypothermia lacks consistent defining characteristics, particularly regarding specific temperature thresholds.
    • Existing literature presents varied descriptions of hypothermia's defining features.

    Observation:

    • A literature review identified three distinct types of hypothermia: inadvertent, accidental, and intentional.
    • Each type possesses unique etiologies and defining characteristics.

    Findings:

    • The study categorizes hypothermia into inadvertent, accidental, and intentional forms.
    • Each category is differentiated by specific causes and clinical manifestations.

    Implications:

    • Standardizing the nursing diagnosis of hypothermia can improve clinical accuracy and patient outcomes.
    • This classification aids in developing targeted interventions for different hypothermia types.
