Cuando la temperatura corporal desciende por debajo de 35 ºC la persona presenta un cuadro de hipotermia. La hipotermia es una de las principales causas de muerte en personas extraviadas en ambientes templados y fríos. [...] El proceso ocurre más rápidamente en los casos de inmersión en agua fría, ya que la disipación de calor es mucho más efectiva. También las personas que han sufrido lesiones importantes(disminución del estado de conciencia, pérdida de volumen sanguíneo, quemaduras, intoxicaciones, etc.) pierden en gran medida su capacidad de regulación térmica, por lo que pueden presentar cuadros de hipotermia en ambientes de temperaturas normales para una persona sana. 2, record 1, Spanish, - hipotermia

Air conditioning is the artificial treatment of air in buildings to render the living conditions of persons within the building more comfortable and healthful, or to ensure better conditions for the production and storage of materials. Complete air conditioning involves adjustment and control of following operations performed on the air supply of a building : 1) heating or cooling; 2) humidification or dehumidification; 3) ventilation; 4) cleaning. 8, record 4, English, - air%20conditioning

Le conditionnement de l'air consiste en un ensemble de traitements de l'air confiné dans un espace normalement clos, visant au contrôle et à la régulation de facteurs caractéristiques d'ambiance tels que température, humidité, pourcentage en oxygène, pureté et mouvement de l'air. [...] Les buts essentiels du conditionnement de l'air sont le chauffage, le refroidissement, le contrôle du degré hygrométrique et le renouvellement de l'air. 7, record 4, French, - conditionnement%20d%27air

climatisation : Lorsqu'il s'agit au contraire d'établir des conditions de température, humidité, pureté de l'air, destinées à assurer le confort des habitants dans les installations non industrielles, on parle plutôt de climatisation. 7, record 4, French, - conditionnement%20d%27air
Record number: 4, Textual support number: 2 OBS
La climatisation tend à réaliser une ambiance agréable favorable à la santé et à l'activité de l'homme au repos ou au travail. Cette technique est également appelée «conditionnement d'air», bien qu'on tende à réserver ce dernier terme aux installations ayant pour objet non pas d'assurer le confort, mais de maintenir des matériaux, des denrées, des appareils, etc., dans des conditions favorables à leur conservation ou à leur fonctionnement. 6, record 4, French, - conditionnement%20d%27air
Record number: 4, Textual support number: 3 OBS
[...] les deux termes «climatisation» et «conditionnement», tout en étant, sous certaines conditions, parfaitement compatibles, ne le sont plus et ne doivent en aucune façon être employés inconsidérément dès qu'il s'agit d'exposés ou d'études techniques traitant les sujets ayant un caractère analytique ou scientifique bien précis. Ainsi, par exemple, le terme «climatisation» n'est pas applicable dans le cas d'un bloc opératoire où il s'agit non seulement d'obtenir des conditions, autant que possible, les plus favorables à l'équilibre homéotherme des occupants (malade et corps médical opérant), mais surtout, et avant tout, les conditions les plus parfaites d'hygiène et d'asepsie (air neuf 100 %, traitement germicide, filtrage absolu, humidité relative compatible avec la sécurité en ce qui concerne le danger d'explosion des vapeurs des anesthésiques, etc.). Il s'agira donc bien d'un «conditionnement» d'air et non d'une simple «climatisation»! 8, record 4, French, - conditionnement%20d%27air
