Abstract

Background: Fever is a physiological reaction of the body to infection or problems in the immune system, characterized by an increase in body temperature above 37.5°C. In children, fever can cause serious problems such as seizures, dehydration, and decreased level of consciousness. It is important to carry out proper treatment so that these complications do not occur.

Results: The identified nursing diagnoses included hyperthermia, risk of hypovolemia, and nausea.
