Relationship between deviation rate from target temperature and mortality and neurological outcome
| Mortality median (IQR) | P value | Neurological outcome median (IQR) | P value | |
| <−0.5°C than target temperature deviation rate % | 0.122 (0.008–1.941) | 0.136 | 0.077 (0.001–4.788) | 0.224 |
| >0.5°C than target temperature deviation rate % | 1.211 (0.205–7.137) | 0.833 | 0.365 (0.060–2.211) | 0.273 |
| >37°C deviation rate % | 3.933 (0.001–13 957.219) | 0.743 | 2.266 (0.003–1650.819) | 0.808 |
| <33°C deviation rate % | 0.000 (0.000–206126.256) | 0.244 | 0.631 (0.000–1.486E+16) | 0.631 |
Four types of temperature deviations (>0.5°C or <−0.5°C compared with the target temperature, >37°C, and <33°C) were evaluated.
