1. How reliable is current evidence?
2. What is normothermia?
5. Is a clinical trial feasible?
4. Surrogate effect/risk of the interventions?
3. What actually happens in clinical practice?
1. How reliable is the evidence for
normothermia?
Laboratory Models
Observational Clinical Studies
We have evidence ... But the data are not reliable enough

2. What is normothermia?
Clinical trials of induced hypothermia vs. control (n=23)

36-37°C1. Brain temperature
2. PAIS clinical trial3. Cardiac arrest: historical control groups
4. Observational studies (stroke, cardiac arrest):For every 1°C rise in temperature above 37°C, there is a doubling in the risk of adverse outcome

3. What do we actually achieve in clinical
practice?
Observational studies
The CLARITY Study: manuscript in preparationSaxena MK, SMACC 2015
Temperature and interventions

Temperature and interventions
A “reactive” approach to fever management
Physical Cooling Use Median temperature C (IQR)
At initiation 38.1 (37.7 to 38.9) During 38 (37.3 to 38.5) At cessation 37.7 (37.0 to 38.2)

How could we maintain 36-37°C?
1. Paracetamol
2. NSAID
3. Physical Cooling
4. How effective are these interventions?
4. Does paracetamol reduce body temperature
after TBI?

How effective are the interventions?
6g/ day of Paracetamol does not significantly reduce temperature after TBINSAIDs
Physical cooling devices
Simple, safe, inexpensive
Nephrotoxicity, platelet dysfunction, GI bleeding

traumatic brain injury, compared to standard care?
