Outcomes and estimation
Furthermore, we found no significant differences between the two groups respecting their baseline GCS, body temperature, white blood cell counts, Pao2/fio2, and MCPIS score (P > 0.05). However, the intervention group had lower body temperature (P < 0.001), lower white blood cell counts (P < 0.038), lower MCPIS score (P < 0.001), and higher PaO2/FIO2 (P < 0.013) at the end of the study (Table
