Different temperature thresholds for antipyretic intervention in critically ill children with fever due to infection: the FEVER feasibility RCT
Background: Fever accelerates host immune system control of pathogens but at a high metabolic cost. The optimal approach to fever management and the optimal temperature thresholds used for treatment in critically ill children are unknown. Objectives: To determine the feasibility of conducting a defi...
