We interviewed 24 040 women who were recruited in the first half of pregnancy to the Danish National Birth Cohort Study, and obtained information on the number of fever incidents during the first 16 weeks of pregnancy. For each fever episode, the highest measured body temperature, duration of...
The definition of fever is an elevation in body temperature or a high body temperature. Technically, any body temperature above the normal oral measurement of 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit (37 Celsius) or the normal rectal temperature of 99 F (37.2 C) is considered elevated. However, these are averag...
The management ofdengue feverduring pregnancy is mainly by supportive and symptomatic treatment, including uterine tocolysis if necessary. If indicated, antipyretic therapy with acetaminophen (paracetamol) is recommended. However, a recent randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial demonstrated that u...
The chapter begins with the definition of fever as a body temperature of 1 °C (1.8 °F) or greater above the mean at the site of temperature recording. For example, the range of body temperature at the axilla is 34.7–37.4 °C, with a...
