Even in the absence of fever, those who exhibit a normal temperature may still need to receive
medical attention. People who are on antibiotics, analgesics, or antipyretics should not be assessed
solely on temperature readings to determine the severity of their illness.
Temperature elevation may signal a serious illness, especially in neonates and infants, or in adults
who are old, frail, or have a weakened immune system. Please seek professional advice immediately
when there is a temperature elevation and if you are taking temperature on:
•
Neonates and infants under 3 months (Consult your physician immediately if the temperature
exceeds 99.4 °F [37.4 °C])
•
Individuals over 60 years of age (Fever may be blunted or even absent in elderly Individuals)
•
Individuals having diabetes mellitus or a weakened immune system (e.g., HIV positive, cancer
chemotherapy, chronic immunosuppressant treatment, splenectomy)
•
Individuals who are bedridden due to stroke, chronic illness, surgical recovery, paraplegia,
quadriplegia.
•
A transplant recipient (e.g., liver, heart, lung, kidney)
It is important to know each individual's normal temperature when they are well. This is the only
way to accurately diagnose a fever. Take multiple readings when healthy to determine normal
temperature.
