Review Meta Analysis
Temperature Control After Adult Cardiac Arrest: An Updated Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.
To perform an updated systematic review and meta-analysis on temperature control in adult patients with cardiac arrest. ⋯ This updated systematic review showed no benefit of temperature control at 32-34 °C compared to normothermia or 36 °C, although the 95% confidence intervals cannot rule out a potential beneficial effect. Important knowledge gaps exist for topics such as hypothermic temperature targets, rewarming rate, and fever control.

Review Meta Analysis
Maintaining normothermia immediately after birth in preterm infants < 34 weeks' gestation: A Systematic review and meta-analysis.
To evaluate delivery room (DR) interventions to prevent hypothermia and improve outcomes in preterm newborn infants <34 weeks' gestation. ⋯ DR temperature of ≥23 °C, radiant warmer in manual mode, use of a PBW and a head covering is suggested for preterm newborn infants <34 weeks' gestation. HHG and TM could be considered in addition to PBW provided resources allow, in settings where hypothermia incidence is high. Careful monitoring to avoid hyperthermia is needed.
