PY - 2023 T2 - Hall, Schmidt and Wood’s Principles of Critical Care, 5th Edition AB - argeted temperature management has been shown to reduce mortality when applied after resuscitation from cardiac arrest.Current guidelines recommend targeted temperature management for most patients after resuscitation from cardiac arrest (both out-of-hospital and in-hospital arrest).Two European randomized trials have suggested that temperature management with an aggressive fever avoidance strategy may suffice for high-quality postarrest care.Targeted temperature management may have benefit for other disease processes such as myocardial infarction and stroke, although data are less conclusive.The mechanisms by which temperature management acts are multifaceted and a focus of much current investigation.
