Sentence "Le risque de mortalité à froid est de 5 %"
Cette chirurgie (mise à plat greffe = synthetic aortic graft implantation) présente donc des complications (pulmonaires, cardiaques, vasculaires, gastriques…) essentiellement dues au clampage aortique et à l’éviscération.
à froid confuses me. What do you think,

I also agree with Michael's explanation but the context is different.
There is also the interesting case of NOM;
Non operative management in the case of blunt liver trauma for example.

mortality during surgery (see explanation)
In fr.answers.com it says this
dit des interventions pratiquées en dehors de poussées inflammatoires
so it seems to me it's talking about surgery undertaken where there is no swelling. Unfortunately I haven't found the correct term (yet) but it seems definitely NOT cold surgery (or due to cold).

Mortality rate on medically stabilized patients
Alain Pommet's answer is exactly on target.
It means when surgery is done on stabilized patient, free of acute complicating risk factors such as active inflammation or infection,etc.
From Petit Robert: "Opérer à froid : pratiquer une opération chirurgicale quand les phénomènes inflammatoires ont disparu."
Reference title(reference below): "Surgical Repair of Hip Fractures in the Elderly: a Safe Journey or a Rush to Disaster? The Case for Prior Medical Stabilization "
...."However, in many
instances, surgery is precluded because of uncontrolled medit
cal problems that require prior patient stabilization...."

correction: delete the word "acute" in my explanation. complicating risks of whatever duration is of course what I meant....

"c.à froid"also means non-emergent or elective surgery depending on context. here surgery is not elective but has low mortality when pt is stabilized. in other contexts "elective s."may indeed apply for distinction from emergent surgery.
