===Swiss Hypothermia Staging System

Stage	Clinical Symptoms	Typical Core Temperature	Treatment
HT I	Conscious, shivering	35 to 32C	Warm environment and clothing, warm sweet drinks, active movement if possible
HT II	Impaired consciousness, not shivering	<32 to 28C	Cardiac monitoring, minimal movements to avoid arrhythmias, horizontal position and immobilization, full body insulation, active external and minimally invasive rewarming techniques (heating pads, forced-air heating packs or blankets, warm parenteral fluids)
HT III	Unconscious, not shivering, VS present	<28 to 24C	HT II plus airway management as required; ECMO or CPD in cases with cardiac instability refractory to medical management
HT IV	No VS	<24C	HT II and III plus CPR and up to three doses of epinephrine (IV or IO dose of 1mg ) and defibrillation; rearming with ECMO or CPB or CPR with active external and alternative internal rewarming
