Boles R, et al. - Frostbite (freezing cold injured tissue) in children and intrinsic (psychological and behavioral) and extrinsic (meteorological and safety hazard) factors related to the injury were delineated via performing a retrospective chart review of children <18 years old referred to a regional pediatric hospital for frostbite. Findings suggest that in children, frostbite injuries begins at temperatures <-6 °C; with risk of tissue loss increasing at temperatures below -23°C. Major risk factors for frostbite among children included lack of supervision and intoxication. Addressing both of these factors via an education-based prevention program is recommended.
