SS,
Agreed. Tomato paste burns deeper much like oil as it gets hotter than water. Therefore, you must stop the burning process first. Decrease the patient's temperature but do not overshoot. Once you are at 38.5 degrees C, consider the patient cool enough. Trapping heat is bad and usually getting them into the air-conditioning (if possible) and spritzing them in front of fans helps off load the heat. Once cooled, move them quickly from the air conditioned department to the ambulance or helicopter so as not to be exposed to the ambient temperatures again.
