Study Summary

There are few treatments for central fever (fever that is due to the central nervous system, as opposed to an infectious source). We hypothesize that an externally applied cooling blanket will reduce temperature in neurologically ill patients with central fever.

Primary Outcome

Core temperature (in degrees Fahrenheit, F) throughout the study period. The cooling blanket was in place throughout the study period unless severe shivering led to termination per protocol.
