摘要: Objective: To determine the epidemiology of fever in a medical intensive care unit (ICU). Design: Period prevalence study. Setting: Medical ICU university-affiliated urban teaching hospital. Subjects: Sixty-eight consecutive patients with admission diagnosis over 2-month period 2002. Interventions: None. Measurements and main results: Forty-eight (71%) experienced during their stay that was infectious origin only 62% cases. Prolonged high-grade fevers were usually due to infections. During first 96 hours, infected had significant higher daily procalcitonin level compared non-infected patients, whereas there no difference leukocyte count between two groups. C-reactive protein levels significantly different at day 4. Conclusions: In is frequently seen commonly non-infectious causes. Body temperature an easily measurable parameter high sensitivity (97%) but ...
