Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to understand the effects of head and face insulation on cooling rates during simulated avalanche burial.
- Nine subjects experienced burials with and without insulation for an hour each, using three different temperature measurement methods: esophageal probe, ingestible capsule, and rectal probe.
- Results showed no significant difference in cooling and rewarming rates between the two conditions, indicating that insulation did not provide protection, and all measurement methods were well correlated, suggesting ingestible capsules could be a useful noninvasive option for future studies.
