Abstract:
Objective To discuss the effect of different methods of dropping the high temperature of the tubercular meningitis patients. Methods 35 cases with tubercular meningitis with high fever were divided into research group(11 cases) and control group(24 cases) ,24 patients in control group were treated by traditional cooling method, 11 patients in research group were rteated by mild hypothermia therapy, The self signs, the intracranial pressure,Glasgow scores, complications and the death rates of patients were assessed and compared. Results The effective rates of the research and control cooling method were 81.8% and 41.7% respectively. The difference between the two groups was significant;After the intervention,compared with the control group, the self scale is superior in research group,and the intracranial pressure and the death rates of patients were lower,and patients'Glasgow scores were higher,but the complications between the two groups had no significant differences. Conclusion Mild hypothermia can effectively control patients'temperature,at the same time, which can improve the patients conscious state and reduce the mortality.
