Need help with my writing homework on Management of uncomplicated fever in children. Write a 2000 word paper answering; The paper gives the literature review and describes how to manage th efever in children. Most of the uncomplicated fevers are managed with just bringing down the temperature. At this juncture, it is important to know what complicated fever is. Children who are very young, who are toxic looking, lethargic, pale or cyanotic, with tachypnoea and tachycardia beyond the degree of temperature may be considered having complicated fever. Also, those in whom the focus of infection is in organs, bones or meninges can also be considered having complicated fever. Other than these, those children with infections like malaria, leptospirosis, typhoid, etc. those with known chronic illnesses, those who have been given antibiotics recently and those with convulsions may be considered to have complicated fever. Such children will need more aggressive management of both fever and the disease. Here we want to discuss about management of uncomplicated fever. What is the need to bring down fever? The study by JBI has shown that fever reduction is important to decrease child's discomfort, decrease parental anxiety and prevent febrile seizures. Fever can be managed with antipyretics like paracetamol and other environmental methods like sponging, bathing, fanning, good hydration, etc. Some studies have used only paracetamol, some others only sponging. while others studied both paracetamol and sponging. It is a well known fact that paracetamol causes hepatotoxicity.
