The using and nursing of moderate hypothermia machine on the children with higher fever

Objective:To explore the effect and nursing skills of the moderate hypothermia machine on reducing higher fever in children.Methods:Using periodic review way,from June to September of 2008,15 cases of patients with higher fever were treated as control group,and from June to September of 2009,15 cases of patients with higher fever were treated as study group.The control group was treated by traditional method,while the study group was treated by moderate hypothermia machine and with extra nursing and observation.Results:The treatment effect of the study group was significant better than the control group (P<0.05).Conclusions:Moderate hypothermia machine has an obvious and persistent effects on reducing higher fever,and brain oxygen consumption,protecting brain cells and improving the quality of nursing.
