Abstract
A patient is reported who presented with fatal hypothermia. The electrocar diographic changes of a sinus bradycardia, prolonged QT interval and Osborn waves were documented and correlated with body temperature. The possible genesis of these electrocardiographic changes is reviewed in this article.Keywords
