Caring for children with a fever - RCN good practice guidance for nurses working with infants, children and young people (10th September 2008)
This good practice guidance aims to help every nurse give up-to-date, evidence-based care to infants, children and young people who are experiencing fever. The information is based on the clinical guideline Feverish illness in children (NICE, 2007) and other recently published papers. It contains information on commonly used nursing interventions, in particular the use of antipyretics and tepid sponging.
