Regulating a patient's body temperature has long been within the scope of practice of the critical care nurse. Different measures and modalities have been used to achieve normothermia in the past. Recent research has demonstrated how crucial body temperature can be, not only because of its potential for neuroprotection but also because of its effects on all body systems. The general consensus of current literature is that maintaining mild hypothermia at 32 degrees to 34 degrees C (89.6 degrees-93.2 degrees F) for 12 to 24 hours after cardiac arrest may provide optimal neuroprotection with minimal complications for patients.
调节患者体温长期以来一直是重症护理护士的执业范围。过去已采用不同的措施和方式来实现体温正常。最近的研究表明了体温的关键程度，这不仅是因为其具有神经保护潜力，还因为其对所有身体系统的影响。当前文献的普遍共识是，心脏骤停后将体温维持在32摄氏度至34摄氏度（89.6华氏度至93.2华氏度）的轻度低温状态12至24小时，可能为患者提供最佳的神经保护且并发症最少。
