Fieber in der Intensivmedizin

Fieber ist ein sehr häufiges, dabei unspezifisches Symptom auf der Intensivstation, kann ganz verschiedene Ursachen haben und ist assoziiert mit einem schlechteren Outcome. Insofern muss jedes Fieber auf der Intensivstation abgeklärt werden, und das Temperaturmanagement richtet sich nach Grunderkrankung, klinischem Zustand des Patienten bzw. der Patientin und evtl. unerwünschten Wirkungen der Therapiemaßnahmen.
