Brief Summary:
The purpose of our study is to verify wherever normothermia achieved with diclofenac administration may improve intracranial pressure control and may limit secondary cerebral damage thus positively influencing outcome in patients with acute cerebral damage admitted to ICU
Detailed Description:
Pyrexia can exacerbate ischemic neuronal damage and physiological dysfunction after traumatic brain injury and subarachnoid hemorrhageFever also represent an important issue occurring in 78 of patients with acute cerebral damage admitted to intensive care unit ICU For those patients normothermia is actually recommended in order to reduce secondary cerebral damage and to control intracranial pressure that are known to worsen long term prognosis Our primary endpoint is to maintain normothermia in patients with acute cerebral damage axillary temperature 38C or internal temperature 388C administering diclofenac We will also investigate the corresponding behaviour of intracranial pressure and cerebral perfusion pressure
Comparisons We will compare two different doses of subcutaneous diclofenac 035 mgkg - 13 a vial - vs 05 mgKg - 12 vial to continuous intravenous of 048 mgkg diclofenac for 12 hours
