Temperature management in acute neurologic disorders has received considerable
attention in the last 2 decades. Numerous trials of hypothermia have been performed in …

Fever is a common occurrence in patients following brain and spinal cord injury (SCI). In
intensive care units, large numbers of patients demonstrate febrile periods during the first …

Background Central fever (CF) is defined as elevated temperature with no identifiable
cause. We aimed to identify risk factors for develo** CF among patients with spontaneous …

Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) accounts for 10–15% of all strokes and leaves most
survivors with impairments. Fever, a rise in the thermoregulatory set point, complicates ICH …

Background and purpose The deleterious effect of hyperthermia on intracerebral
hemorrhage (ICH) has been studied. However, the results are not conclusive and new …

Fever is probably the most frequent symptom observed in neurointensive care by healthcare
providers. It is seen in almost 70% of neurocritically ill patients. Fever of central origin was …

Background: Central hyperthermia is an unresolved riddle; this study tries to define its
characteristics. Methods: Seventy-four previously healthy patients who developed …

Different mechanisms explain thermoregulatory dysfunction following ischemic stroke,
hemorrhagic stroke, and traumatic brain injury. Temperature instability following brain injury …

Background Fever is common in patients with intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). We sought to
identify predictors of fever in patients hospitalized with ICH, and compare infectious fever …

Introduction. Central hyperthermia is common in patients with brain injury. It typically has a
rapid onset with high temperatures and marked fluctuations and responds poorly to …
