A significant and potentially dangerous drop in body temperature. The most common cause is prolonged exposure to cold.

Hypothermia can have causes that aren't due to underlying disease. Examples include cold exposure or extreme physical exertion.

When your body temperature drops, your heart, nervous system and other organs can't work normally. Left untreated, hypothermia can lead to complete failure of your heart and respiratory system and eventually to death. Hypothermia is often caused by exposure to cold weather or immersion in cold water.

Hypothermia is caused by prolonged exposures to very cold temperatures. When exposed to cold temperatures, your body begins to lose heat faster than it's produced. Lengthy exposures will eventually use up your body's stored energy, which leads to lower body temperature.

Hypothermia generally progresses in three stages from mild to moderate and then severe. High blood pressure, shivering, rapid breathing and heart rate, constricted blood vessels, apathy and fatigue, impaired judgment, and lack of coordination.
