IRCT2012092910963N1 IRCT 2013-02-15 Vice-chancellor for research - Qazvin University of Medical Science Active cooling effect on fever reduction Comparing the effect of active cooling and wet sponging to reduce the body temperature in Intensive Care Unit febrile patients: A factorial design 2012-10-22 anticipated 72 Complete https://irct.ir/trial/11350 interventional Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Not blinded, Placebo: Not used, Assignment: Factorial, Purpose: Treatment. N/A Fever. Intervention 1: wet sponging Intervention group: In this case the temperature of water will be one degree lower than ambient temperature and the standard gas is used. Intervention 2: Intervention airflow group: The direct flow of air at room temperature is given. In this method, the upper half of the body and legs from the knee to the down will be exposed to the airflow of Pars Khazar fan 3010 model with rotation speed of 1025 rpm, the air velocity of 205 meters per minute, air volume of 54 cubic meters per minute. In this way, the fan is placed at a distance of 30 cm at the bottom of the patient's foot. Intervention 3: 3 rd Intervention group : combination of air flow and fanning. Intervention 4: control group : no physical treatment.
