- W2000656037 abstract "Abstract Introduction Different sources give different definitions of fever. To recognize fever, the temperature of the body, depending on the location of measuring, ranges from 37.2 to as much as 39 degrees Celsius (°C), most sources take 38 °C as the average limit value. Given the diverse range of publications, pediatricians have problems with giving the definition of fever; therefore, not surprisingly parents cannot do it. There was frequent anxiety among parents when the body temperature was minimally higher and a tendency to over-interpret this condition as fever. Study purpose The aim of the study was to assess parental interpretation of body temperature in children, in particular the ability to recognize fever and to analyse the temperature from part of the body where it was taken. Materials and methods The study involved 206 people aged 18–62 years (mean 30.64), who were parents or legal guardians of children aged 0.5 months to 17 years (mean 24.2 months), among whom a survey was conducted containing questions regarding the diagnosis of fever in their child. The results of the study were statistically analyzed using Statistica version 6.0. Results Fever was defined by parents as a body temperature in the range of 37 to 39 °C. 132 people said that a boundary temperature is 38 °C, 30 patients – 37.5 °C and 17 persons – 38.5 °C; 5 parents reported less than 37.5 °C temperature, and 10 parents higher than 38.5 °C. It was found that 162/204 (79.41%) of the respondents properly interpreted fever state. The correct definition of subfebris state reported 192 (95.05%) of the respondents. Only 135 respondents answered questions about the temperature dependency of the measurement, of which only 56.3% said that such a relationship exists. Only 50 respondents have described this relationship and only 40% of this response was correct. It has been shown that parents of older children, having more than one child, mothers, and people with medical professional experience in some aspects have a better understanding of the problem of the interpretation of the results of measurement of a body temperature. Conclusions 1. Nearly 80% of parents correctly recognize fever in their child. 2. There is poor awareness of the interpretation of the results based on the place of the measurement of body temperature. 3. Parents’ experience and professional knowledge are associated with better awareness of the fever." @default.
