Full text not available from this repository. (Request a copy)Since the antiquity up to the 19th century fever goes for an illness of its own rights. About 1900 temperature measurement has become clinical routine and fever synonymous with elevated body heat. In the time before accelerated pulse rate was the pathognomic sign. The detection of specific pathogen organisms leads to a new understanding of nosology and to the dissolution of the fever entity. However the antipyretic therapy remains essentially the same until the appearance of antibiotics.
