Pathological Point Of View -

   

• Fever (Also Known As Pyrexia Or Febrile Response) Is One Of The Most Common Medical Signs And Is Characterized By An Elevation Of Body Temperature Above The Normal Range Of 36.5–37.5 °C (97.7–99.5 °F) Due To An Increase In The Temperature Regulatory Set-Point.

• This Increase In Set-Point Triggers Increased Muscle Tone And Chills.

• As A Person's Temperature Increases, There Is, In General, A Feeling Of Cold Despite An Increase In Body Temperature.

• Once Body Temperature Has Increased To The New Set-Point Temperature, There Is A Feeling Of Warmth.

• A Wide Range For Normal Temperatures Has Been Found.

• Temperature In The Anus (Rectum/Rectal) Is At Or Over 37.5–38.3 °C (99.5–100.9 °F)

• Temperature In The Mouth (Oral) Is At Or Over 37.7 °C (99.9 °F)

• Temperature Under The Arm (Axillary) Or In The Ear (Otic) Is At Or Over 37.2 °C (99.0 °F)

     

perature Classification
	Core (rectal, esophageal, etc.)
Hypothermia	<35.0 °C (95.0 °F)
Normal	36.5–37.5 °C (97.7–99.5 °F)
Fever	>37.5–38.3 °C (99.5–100.9 °F)
Hyperthermia	>37.5–38.3 °C (99.5–100.9 °F)
Hyperpyrexia	>40.0–41.5 °C (104.0–106.7 °F)
Note: The difference between fever and hyperthermia is the underlying mechanism.

Types :-



Continuous Fever : Temperature Remains Above Normal Throughout The Day And Does Not Fluctuate More Than 1 °C In 24 Hours, e.g. Lobar Pneumonia, Typhoid, Urinary Tract Infection, Brucellosis, Or Typhus. Typhoid Fever May Show A Specific Fever Pattern (Wunderlich Curve Of Typhoid Fever), With A Slow Stepwise Increase And A High Plateau. (Drops Due To Fever-Reducing Drugs Are Excluded.)

Intermittent fever : The Temperature Elevation Is Present Only For A Certain Period, Later Cycling Back To Normal, e.g. Malaria, Kala-Azar, Pyaemia, Or Septicemia. Following Are Its Types :-

• Quotidian Fever, With A Periodicity Of 24 Hours, Typical Of Plasmodium Falciparum Or Plasmodium Knowlesi Malaria 

• Tertian Fever (48 Hour Periodicity), Typical Of Plasmodium Vivax Or Plasmodium Ovale Malaria 

• Quartan Fever (72 Hour Periodicity), Typical Of Plasmodium Malariae Malaria. 

Remittent fever : Temperature Remains Above Normal Throughout The Day And Fluctuates More Than 1 °C In 24 Hours, e.g., Infective Endocarditis.

Pel-Ebstein Fever : A Specific Kind Of Fever Associated With Hodgkin's Lymphoma, Being High For One Week And Low For The Next Week And So On. However, There Is Some Debate As To Whether This Pattern Truly Exists.

A Neutropenic Fever, Also Called Febrile Neutropenia, Is A Fever In The Absence Of Normal Immune System Function. Because Of The Lack Of Infection-Fighting Neutrophils, A Bacterial Infection Can Spread Rapidly; This Fever Is, Therefore, Usually Considered To Require Urgent Medical Attention. This Kind Of Fever Is More Commonly Seen In People Receiving Immune-Suppressing Chemotherapy Than In Apparently Healthy People.

Febricula Is An Old Term For A Low-Grade Fever, Especially If The Cause Is Unknown, No Other Symptoms Are Present, And The Patient Recovers Fully In Less Than A Week.


 
 Performance Of The Various Types Of Fever

a) Fever Continues  

b) Fever Continues To Abrupt Onset And Remission

c) Fever Remittent 

d) Intermittent Fever 

e) Undulant Fever 

f) Relapsing Fever

Pathophysiology :-

• Temperature Is Ultimately Regulated In The Hypothalamus. A Trigger Of The Fever, Called A Pyrogen, Causes A Release Of Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2).

• PGE2 Then In Turn Acts On The Hypothalamus, Which Generates A Systemic Response Back To The Rest Of The Body, Causing Heat-Creating Effects To Match A New Temperature Level.

• In Many Respects, The Hypothalamus Works Like A Thermostat. 

• When The Set Point Is Raised, The Body Increases Its Temperature Through Both Active Generation Of Heat And Retaining Heat. 

• Vasoconstriction Both Reduces Heat Loss Through The Skin And Causes The Person To Feel Cold.

• If These Measures Are Insufficient To Make The Blood Temperature In The Brain Match The New Setting In The Hypothalamus, Then Shivering Begins In Order To Use Muscle Movements To Produce More Heat. 

• When The Fever Stops, And The Hypothalamic Setting Is Set Lower; The Reverse Of These Processes (Vasodilation, End Of Shivering And Nonshivering Heat Production) And Sweating Are Used To Cool The Body To The New, Lower Setting.

• This Contrasts With Hyperthermia, In Which The Normal Setting Remains, And The Body Overheats Through Undesirable Retention Of Excess Heat Or Over-Production Of Heat. 

• Hyperthermia Is Usually The Result Of An Excessively Hot Environment (Heat Stroke) Or An Adverse Reaction To Drugs. 

• Fever Can Be Differentiated From Hyperthermia By The Circumstances Surrounding It And Its Response To Anti-Pyretic Medications.

Management :-


General Measures :-

• Cold Compresses Or Ice Bag - Over Forehead, Axillae, Neck Etc.

• Bed Rest With Blanket.

• Semi Solid Or Liquid Diet, Avoid Cold Water.

• Avoid Exposure To Wind.

• Avoid Bath - Only Sponging. 

Allopathic Treatment :-

• Most Fever Encountered In General Practice Are Viral, Self Limiting And Require Only Symptomatic Treatment.

Symptomatic Treatment :-

• Analgesics.

• NSAIDs.

• Anti Histaminics.

Some Points To Be Kept In Our Mind While Handling The Case Of Fever :- 

• Before Labelling A Fever As Viral, You Must Look For (As A Compulsory Routine) Pallor, Jaundice Neck Stiffness, Abdomen For Liver & Spleen And Auscultate The Chest.

• If There Is A Running Epidemic e.g., Malaria, Influenza, Viral Hepatitis Or Typhoid In The Locality, Then That Cause Must Be Thought Of First.

• Though Many Of The Fevers In General Practice Are Viral And Harmless, The Practitioner Must Be Aware Of The Common Causes Of Fever, And The Symptoms & warning Signals Suggesting That This May Not Be A Simple Fever. You Should Always Try To Find The Cause Of The Fever By Evaluating The Associated Symptoms.

Fever With Chills :-

Think Of Malaria And Urinary Infection :-

• In Endemic Areas, Rule Out Filariasis, (And If No Cause Is Apparent, Think Of Hidden Abscess) Ask For Blood Smear For M.P., Urine, Hb% & WBC.

A. If Chills & Shivering Is Severe, Or If Fever Comes On Alternate Days, Or At The Same Time Everyday Or If Spleen Is Palpable, Suspect Malaria.

• Chloroquin.

• Metochlorpromide If Nausea & Vomiting Occurs Due To Chloroquin.

If Resistent To Chloroquin,

• Quinine

If P. Falciparum Malaria,

• Tab Mepacrine

B. If Associated Burning Micturation, Cloudy Urine, Or Loin Pain - Suspect Urinary Infection.

• Urinary Antibiotic

• Alkaliniser

• Phenazo - Pyridine

• Plenty Of Water & Fluids.

C. In Endemic Areas Of Filariasis, Think Of Filarial Infection, Especially If Associated With Edema Of Leg Or Inguinal Lymphadenopathy.

• Diethylcarbamazine

• Prednisolone

Fever Without Chills :-

• Antibiotics.

• If Associated With Nausea & Vomiting, Give Injectable Antibiotics.

If Fever Does Not Reduce Within 3-4 Days Of Antibiotic Treatment, Ask For Routine Investigations - i.e., Hb% , WBC, ESR, Widal Test, Urine & X-ray Chest.

If The Fever Is Long Drawn, Over 2 Weeks, Then Investigate Fully. The Seriousness Of Prolonged Fevers Is Often Not Realised, If The Fever Is Off & On.

Ask For :  

• Hb%, WBC, ESR, Peripheral Smear For M.P. (During Chills) & Leukemia.

• Urine - Routine & Culture.

• Widal Test.

• H.I.V. Test.

• Anti - TB Antigen Test.

• Brucella Test.

• X-ray Chest.

• Ultrasonography Of Liver & Abdomen.

• Lymph Node Biopsy If Lymph Nodes Are Palpable.

• Blood Culture. If No Source Is Detected.

Some Points To Be Kept In Our Mind :

• Remember, Simple Viral Fevers Do Not Require Antibiotics.

• If Fever Does Not Reduce Within 3-4 Days Or Empirical Treatment, Investigate In Details Or Consult A Physician.
