Abstract

Introduction: Hyperthermia is an infection or inflammation caused by bacteria, viruses or other pathogens that stimulates the release of pyrogens that act in the hypothalamus, where they trigger the production of prostaglandins and increase the reference value (set point) of body temperature. Method: Data was collected using the observation method which was recorded in an observation sheet. The results showed that after giving tepid water sponge therapy for 3 days, the patient experienced a reduction in fever. Result: Implementation done in cases of dengue fever with hyperthermia is Hypertermia Management, which includes monitoring body temperature, providing a cool environment, loosening or unloading clothes, wet and soaking body surfaces, giving oral fluids, encouraging sleeping, and giving intravenous fluids and electrolytes. The second implementation that can be done is Temperature Regulation, which includes monitoring a child's body temperature every two hours, monitoring skin color and temperature, monitor blood pressure, respiratory frequency and pulse rate, increasing adequate fluid and nutritional intake, and providing antipyretics. Conclusion: The implementation process of nurses that have been given to patient with hypertermal problems in dengue haemorrhagic fever lasted for 3 days shift time with 3 times administration of therapeutic intervention tepid water Spong. Results of the nursery evaluation in patient. with the problem of hypertermia in Dengue Haemorhagic Fever in there is a decrease in the body temperature in the patient.

Abstract

Background: Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF), an infectious disease transmitted by Aedes aegypti mosquitoes, frequently causes epidemics and can lead to fatal outcomes. A common clinical manifestation of DHF is hyperthermia (high fever), which requires prompt management. While pharmacological interventions like paracetamol or ibuprofen are standard, non-pharmacological therapies such as shallot (onion) compresses may offer supportive benefits. Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of shallot compress therapy in reducing fever in pediatric DHF patients. Methods: A case study was conducted in the Aster Room of Dr. Soebandi Hospital, involving children diagnosed with DHF and hyperthermia. Shallot compresses were applied as a non-pharmacological intervention, and temperature changes were monitored. Results: The study demonstrated a significant reduction in body temperature following the application of shallot compresses, indicating its efficacy as a supportive therapy for fever management in DHF. Conclusion: Shallot compress therapy is an effective non-pharmacological intervention to alleviate hyperthermia in pediatric DHF patients. Further research with larger samples is recommended to validate these findings.
