Two cases of accidental immersion hypothermia are presented, both occurring during the same aircraft ditching. One victim survived while the other patient died despite identical immersion time and environmental conditions. Pertinent literature is reviewed to attempt to explain the different patient outcomes. The most important discriminating factor appears to be skinfold thickness, which reflects body fat.
本文介绍了两例意外浸泡低温症病例，均发生在同一架飞机迫降期间。尽管浸泡时间和环境条件相同，但一名受害者存活，另一名患者死亡。回顾相关文献以试图解释不同的患者结局。最重要的区分因素似乎是反映身体脂肪的皮褶厚度。
