Two unconscious patients with unknown past medical histories were found to be severely hypothermic, with core temperatures of 80.2 degrees F and 86.7 degrees F, respectively. During the course of active internal rewarming, both patients sustained a cardiac arrest.

Within 24 hours after resuscitation, both patients were responsive and following commands.
