A reduction in ΔTjb-pa and greater variation in ΔTjb-pa were associated with an unfavorable outcome in patients with severe TBI, especially those treated with TH. When treating severe TBI patients, it is important to understand that there will be differences in temperature reflecting the brain environment and the systemic temperature, depending on the severity and outcome of TBI during TH.
