Abstract
Undifferentiated body temperature of greater than 38 degreesC can herald a number of important clinical syndromes essential to diagnose besides just infectious aetiologies. This review examines the pathophysiology, clinical features and approach to the management of hyperthermia that will lead to appropriate diagnosis and treatment.
