Temperature curves

increase of the hypothalamic heat regulatory set-point.

the daily measurement.
Temperature curves give a clear picture of

the nature of fever (see)have often significant diagnostic and prognostic value.

high, within 39C, held for a few days or weeks

with fluctuations within 1 degree. Occurs in acute infectious diseases: typhoid fever, lobar pneumonia, and other (Fig. 1).

significant daily fluctuations in body temperature (up to 2 degrees

or more), found at purulent diseases (Fig. 2).

sharp rise of body temperature up to 39-40 degrees and

more and recession in the short term to normal and even subnormal numbers; in 1-2-3 day the same rise and fall again. Typical for malaria (Fig. 3).

daily fluctuations of temperature of the body (more than 3

degrees) and a sharp drop it to normal and subnormal numbers, and fluctuations of temperature greater than that with relapsing fever; observed in septic conditions and severe forms of TB (Fig. 4).

to high numbers, rests on these values few days, then

decreases to normal. Some time later the fever comes back again followed by remission (febrile seizures may occur, 4-5). This type of fever typical of some of spirochetosis (relapsing fever and other) (Fig. 5).

a similar reduction nature. There may be several waves of

raising and lowering the temperature differs from recurrent fever gradual increase and losing temperature. Occurs when brucellosis and other diseases (Fig. 6).

evening, meets with tuberculosis, protracted sepsis, prognostically unfavorable. 8. Irregular fever

occurs most often. Daily fluctuations of body temperature varied, the duration is not determined. Observed at rheumatism, pneumonia, dysentery, influenza (Fig. 7).

common types of fever. The temperature curve shows various irregular

fluctuations without any regularity. Occurs in flu, other acute viral respiratory infections, bronchopneumonia, collagenosis, sepsis, acute intestinal infections, etc.

a stage of rise of temperature (stadium incrementi). Depending on

the nature of the disease, this period may be very short and measured in hours, usually accompanied by fever (for example, malaria, lobar pneumonia), or stretch out on a long term of up to several days (for example, typhoid fever).
2. Stage height of fever (fastigium or acme). Lasts from several hours to several days.

is called the crisis (malaria, lobar pneumonia, typhus; Fig. 8);

gradual decrease called lysis (typhoid and others; Fig. 9).

daily fluctuations of temperature of the body sick. On the vertical

scale temperature curves indicated figures body temperature from 35 to 41 degrees; on horizontal - date and time of measurement.

Putting points daily thermometer against relevant designations and connecting them, get a polygonal line, called the temperature curve .

Filling temperature curve is the number of paramedical workers daily after measuring sick temperature in the morning and evening.

results of some other observations over the course of the

disease: the respiratory rate and pulse rate, blood pressure, and the amount consumed and the selected fluid and so on, as well as information on measures taken for the care and treatment of patients (hygienic bath, change of linen, special procedures)

respiration, and blood pressure is celebrated against the corresponding symbols

on the left of the vertical scale,
other indicators - in the lower part of the temperature of a sheet under the temperature curve

differ from those in the General somatic hospitals;
in such

temperature sheets to reflect more of the indicators.
Temperature worksheet is stored in the history of the disease.
