Hypothermia, described as a core body temperature of < 95%, is associated with ECG alteration abnormalities. Sinus bradycardia
occurs when the body temperature drops below 90°F, and is correlated with gradual prolongation of the PR interval, QRS complex,
QT interval. It can progress to ventricular and atrial fibrillation at a temperature reaching 89°F, which can lead to left ventricular
dysfunction. Hypothermia is connected to the osborn waves, which at the end of the QRS complex consist of additional deflection.
The inferior and lateral precordial leads are seen by Osborn waves, also known as J waves, Camel hump waves and hypothermic
waves. As the body temperature decreases, it becomes more pronounced and a gradual expansion of the QRS complex raises the
likelihood of ventricular fibrillation causing ventricle dysfunction.
