Pyrexia after diphtheria/tetanus/pertussis and diphtheria/tetanus vaccines.

Pyrexia after diphtheria/tetanus/pertussis and diphtheria/tetanus vaccines.

The temperatures of 587 children were taken before and after diphtheria/tetanus/pertussis (DTP) or diphtheria/tetanus (DT) vaccine. Only slight temperature increases were found but these were notably more frequent after plain than adsorbed DTP vaccine preparations and the frequency increased with each successive dose.

Swinging pyrexia after hysteroscopy: an unusual complication.

Pyrexia and neurologic outcomes after therapeutic hypothermia for cardiac arrest.

OBJECTIVE Therapeutic hypothermia, also known as targeted temperature management (TTM), improves clinical outcomes in patients resuscitated from cardiac arrest. Hyperthermia after discontinuation of active temperature management ("rebound pyrexia") has been observed, but its incidence and association with clinical outcomes is poorly described. We hypothesized that rebound pyrexia is common afte...

Pyrexia of unknown origin.

Pyrexia of Unknown Origin

One of the most challenging problem a physician used to face in day to day practice is the evaluation of patients with prolonged pyrexia—a truly significant test of his clinical skills. Causes of PUO vary according to geographical area, health care setup, investigations facilities, and physicians’ attitude. Because of socioeconomic and other factors, infectious diseases are still very common in...
