About this study

The best strategy for managing fever in patients with septic shock remains unknown. In a pilot study, the investigators showed that fever control at normothermia allowed a better control of shock and evolution of organ failures. In this second trial the investigators will conduct a multicentre, open-label, randomized controlled, superiority trial in which two strategies will be compared: 1. Respect of fever 2. Fever control at normothermia using external cooling The primary end point will be d-60 mortality.
