This document discusses fever in children. It covers normal body temperature, the definition of fever, pathogenesis and pathophysiology of fever, patterns of fever, fever in clinical settings, and treatment. Fever is an important defense mechanism in children and is usually caused by infections, though sometimes other conditions. The body's temperature is regulated by the hypothalamus and fevers result from the elevation of the thermoregulatory set point. Potential complications include dehydration, febrile seizures, and hyperpyrexia.

Definition Most common cause of fever in children are infection, hypersensitivity reaction, autoimmune diseases, and malignancy
Febrile response is mediated by endogenous pyrogens (EP, cytokines) in response to invading exogenous pyrogens, primarily microorganisms or their product (toxins) Pathogenesis of Fever Endogenous pyrogen acts on thermosensitive neurons in hypothalamus, which upgrade the set point via prostaglandins
Body reacts by increasing the heat production and decreasing the heat loss until the body temperature reaches this elevated set point
Fever will control effectively by hypothalamic center
Pathogenesis of Fever Mechanisms of Fever Production Cytokines play a pivotal role in the immune response by activation of the B cells and T cell lymphocytes Production of fever is strongly evidence as a defence body mechanism Fever become harmfull or fatal by overproduction of cytokines or imbalance between cytokine & their inhibitors (severe infection and septic shock)
Pathogenesis of Fever Fever is an interleukin-1 (IL-1) mediated elevation of the thermoregulatory set point of the hypothalamic centre.
In response to an upward displacement of the set points, an active process occurs in order to reach the new set point
minimizing heat loss with vasoconstriction producing heat with shivering
Pathophysiology of Fever (1) The regulation of body temperature Behavioral means of raising body temperature include seeking a warmer environment, adding more clothing, curling up in bed, drinking warm liquids. Pathophysiology of Fever (2) Fever is not dangerous Fever is a body defence mechanism Morbidity & mortality due to underlying disease Fever does not damage the central nervous system Controlled by a hypothalamic centre Phase of Fever Phase of temperature raise Phase of temperature stabilization (fastigium) Characterized by discomfort Result of decreased heat loss through vasoconstriction & increased heat production through shivering Child feels cool, skin feels cold to the touch
New level of thermoregulatoy set point Balance heat production & heat loss, at a higher hypothalamic set point Flushed or pink face appearance signifies that fever has peaked Child feels comfort without shivering
Phase of falling temperature or defervescence Occur either by lysis (falling gradulally within 2-3 days to a normal level) or crisis (falling within a few hours to normal level)
