Temperature control to improve neurological outcomes after cardiac arrest (IPG782)
Evidence-based recommendations on temperature control to improve neurological outcomes after cardiac arrest. This involves controlling a person’s body temperature while they are still unconscious after their heart has been restarted. Either their body is kept at a normal temperature of between 36.5°C and 37.5°C to prevent fever, or it is cooled to between 32.0°C and 36.0°C (therapeutic hypothermia).
