The development of hyperthermia (≥ 38.3 C) in severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) is
associated with increased levels of disability and mortality, since it critically affects the …

Background: Systemic hyperthermia is common after traumatic brain injury (TBI) and may
induce secondary brain injury, although the pathophysiology is not fully understood. In this …

Hyperthermia, frequently seen in patients following traumatic brain injury (TBI), may be due
to posttraumatic cerebral inflammation, direct hypothalamic damage, or secondary infection …

Results Only ICP was significantly increased by 6 [3; 11] mm Hg (p< 0.01). In patients with
initially normal ICP, hyperthermia resulted increase of ICP in 48% of cases (median 24 [22; …

Background: Hyperthermia is a common secondary insult in traumatic brain injury (TBI). The
aim was to evaluate the relationship between hyperthermia and intracranial pressure (ICP) …

The brain is extraordinarily susceptible to changes in temperature. Hyperthermia has been
shown to exacerbate the biochemical cascade of secondary brain injury. Inversely …

Background: Intracranial hypertension (ICH) and hyperthermia are common after traumatic
brain injury (TBI) and associated with worse neurological outcomes. This study sets out to …

Temperature variations after traumatic brain injury are common and devastating. This has
been shown most clearly with hypothermia, but the complications associated with …

Rapid progress in new technologies and their application to diagnosis and monitoring of
brain tissue temperature and metabolism have led to major advances in understanding the …

Background—Moderate elevations of brain temperature, when present during or after
ischemia or trauma, may markedly worsen the resulting injury. We review these provocative …
