What is management of temperature ?
Answers
Answer:
Explanation:Normothermia: Body temperature within normal values.
Exact normal temperature ranges differ between individuals and can be influenced by some genetic and chronic medical conditions. It is important to ascertain the baseline for individual patients in order to identify abnormal body temperature deviations.
Pyrexia: An elevated body temperature due to an increase in the body temperature’s set point. This is usually caused by infection or inflammation. Pyrexia is also known as fever or febrile response.
Some causes of fevers do not require medical treatment, whilst other causes need to be identified and treated.
Hyperthermia: An elevated body temperature due to failed thermoregulation. This occurs when the body produces and/or absorbs more heat than it can dissipate.
Heat stroke: A presentation of severe hyperthermia. Thermoregulation is overwhelmed by excessive metabolic production and environmental heat, in combination with impaired heat loss. This is uncommon within an inpatient setting.
Low temperature: A lowered body temperature, where the body loses heat faster than it can produce heat.
Hypothermia: An abnormally low body temperature, where the body temperature drops below a safe level. Both low temperatures and hypothermia can be caused by environmental factors, metabolic complications, disease processes, or can be medically induced.
