“…Central fever can be caused by various factors, including the use of anesthesia drugs, surgical stimulation, brain injury, or infection. [ 1 ] Central fever can lead to neurological damage, especially in the brain. The elevated temperature directly impairs the function and structure of brain cells, which may result in cognitive dysfunction, decreased memory, and neurological abnormalities.…”

To analyze clinical characteristics and anesthesia-related factors influencing central fever during cranial neurosurgery. 31 central fever cases (observation) and 120 controls (no fever) underwent detailed investigation. Anaesthesia-related variables were analyzed using logistic regression. Observation group exhibited significantly elevated indicators—CSF white blood cells, protein, CRP, severe EEG abnormalities, abnormal imaging, positive meningeal signs, seizures, consciousness disorders, and status epilepticus (P < .05). Anesthesia plans showed no influence (P > .05). pH, PaCO2, PaO2, SaO2, MAP, ICP, CPP, and SjiO2 didn’t impact central fever (P > .05). However, high HR, low Da-jvO2, and low CEO2 were independent risk factors (P < .05). Central fever, marked by CNS abnormalities, manifests with distinctive clinical features. Anesthesia plans have limited impact, while elevated HR, low Da-jvO2, and low CEO2 independently contribute to central fever. Understanding these factors is crucial for perioperative care optimization.

Central fever, or hyperthermia of central origin, is a not so rare cause of hyperthermia in neurological rehabilitation units, characterised by persistent fever without any recognisable cause, and poor response to conventional antipyretics. This article reports a case of central fever in a patient with tuberculous meningitis, treated with dopamine agonist bromocriptine in conventional doses, which resulted in fever remission. The current literature is also reviewed.
