Objective:To retrieve, evaluate, and integrate the best practice evidence for targeted temperature management in neurocritically ill patients.Methods:PIPOST tool was used to identify evidence-based issues; the Chinese and English terms were chosen as "Traumatic brain injuries", "Craniocerebral trauma/Cerebral hemorrhage/Stroke/Subarachnoid hemorrhage/Cerebral vascular disease", and "Mild hypothermia therapy/Target body temperature/Cyotherapy". According to top-down design of the "6S" evidence model, databases such as French guideline network, US guideline network, UpToDate, Chinese Biomedical Literature Database, China Yimaitong Guide network, CNKI, and Wanfang Medical Network were searched. Two researchers independently evaluated the quality of the included literature, and extracted and summarized the evidences of the literature that met the quality standards.Results:A total of 10 articles were included, including 1 clinical decision, 4 guidelines, 1 evidence summary, and 4 expert consensuses. Finally, 27 pieces of best evidences were summarized, including 6 aspects as evaluation, preparation before implementation, targeted body temperature selection, intervention duration, chill management, and other complication prevention.Conclusion:Best evidence for temperature management in neurocritically ill patients can provide evidence-based evidence for healthcare professionals.
