Clinic Consult: Fever Of Unknown Origin Original PDF 2019

The aim of this chapter is to focus on the clinic consult pediatrics. Fever of unknown origin (FUO) is not a clearly defined term in pediatric medicine. The basic requirement of 3 weeks of fever is a long time period, instead children are often diagnosed with FUO when fever is present for a few days and basic screening tests are negative. Infection accounts for more than half of the FUOs in children. In future with the advancement in diagnostic procedures, FUOs could be diagnosed at shorter intervals and more accurately. Direct detection and quantification of fever-inducing cytokines in blood and tissues will help in identification of inflammatory stimuli. The chapters compiled in this book cover the various aspects of FUO in a concise easy to read presentation. Focus has been given to the common causes of FUO. This book is meant for all the medical practitioners who treat patients suffering from fever and also for undergraduate and postgraduate medical students. The subject is presented in a brief, to the point, ready to read format with flowcharts and illustrations for handy reference
