21
Q

Associated fever manifestat;iin

A

Associated Manifestations:
“ Myalgias, arthralgias, and anorexia are all due to the peripheral effects of PGE2
and may be abolished with the use of COX inhibitors
Calling or more def cold occurring as part of the CS response to the new setpoint
• A rigor is a profound chill with shivering and piloerection.
• Sweats occur with the activation of heat loss mechanisms either:
*due to the effect of antipyretics setting the hypothalamic set point downwards or
>due to elimination of the febrile stimulus.
• Febrile convulsions occurring in infants and children less than 5 years old specially with higher temperatures ≥ 40°C

27
Q

Fever controller

A

• Control of Fever:
• Physical cooling: Cold foments - Cooling blankets - Ice bath
• Antipyretics:
• Aspirin:
/ Mechanism: it is a COX-I → decreased PGE2 centrally and peripheral
(Paracetamol):
V Mechanism: it lacks the peripheral inhibitor y effect on PGE2 synthesis so, has no anti-inflammatory actions but it decreases its synthesis centrally hence its potent antipyretic effect.
>NSAIDs:
/Potent antipyretics and anti-inflammatory e.g. diclofenac, indomethacin and ibuprofen.
