Factors influencing deviation from target temperature during targeted temperature management in postcardiac arrest patients [PDF]
Open Heart, 2023 Background Targeted temperature management (TTM) is a recommended therapy for postcardiac arrest patients. Hyperthermia worsened the patient outcome, and overcooling increased the incidence of complications; therefore, a high-quality TTM is required. The
