研究组 & 干预措施
Sous vide device
The intervention will be the use of a sous vide device to heat the water bath to 38oC, rather than the traditional methods of manual water exchanges or placing the frostbitten tissue under running water.
干预措施: Sous Vide Device (SVD) (Device)
结局指标
主要结局
Time to Rewarm in Minutes
时间窗: Up to 90 minutes
Measure the time required to rewarm frostbitten extremities until the extremity is reddish or purple in coloration, and soft and pliable
Number of Limbs That Can be Rewarming Within 30 Minutes
时间窗: 30 minutes
Assess if frostbitten extremities can be rewarmed in 30 minutes at 38 degrees celsius using the experimental device
次要结局
- Ease of Use: Provider Review of the Investigational Device and Standard of Care(Immediately after rewarming, up to 90 minutes)
