How is head injury detected by temperature?

High temp bad outcom: In hospitalized patients at risk for ongoing brain injury, the incidence of temperature increases within the range reported to worsen neurologic outcome (elevations of 1.0 degree c or more) was very high - potentially injurious, randomly occurring, and traditionally undertreated temperature. New therapeutic hypothermia is becoming an important intervention following acute neurologic injury.
