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.
