Effect of Paracetamol on Cerebral Temperature in Febrile Brain-Injured Patients. The NEUROTHERM Study: A Randomized Controlled Pharmacodynamic Trial
Paracetamol significantly reduced CT in febrile brain-injured patients (overall mean reduction of 0.6°C), maintaining temperatures less than 38.5°C for a median of 3.6 hours. The gradient between CT and ST was consistently about 0.3°C in both groups.
