Oral hydration was administered to 48.1% and 85.1% received cooled serum filling. Vasoactive drugs were required in 11.1% of patients. Oxygen therapy was delivered to 48.1%, with mechanical ventilation used for 22.2%.33.3% of patients died, while 66.7% improved.Predictive factors for mortality included elevated core temperature, confusion, coma, visceral compromise, hemodynamic distress, use of mechanical ventilation, administration of vasoactive drugs No significant difference for cooling...
