Regional fever management impulse meeting
The meeting is part of our efforts to optimise medical care in our region by implementing the latest fever knowledge - based on the AWMF fever guideline that will soon be published. Together with the participants, we would like to develop innovative approaches that recognise fever as a resource and provide relief.
Topics of the meeting are
- Intercultural aspects:different attitudes and practices in relation to fever
- Presentation of the current draft of the new AWMF fever guideline and the research results from the FeverApp and FieberApp register study
- Presentation and discussion of a film script on the AWMF guideline from TU Dresden
- Exchange on the participants' experiences and practices in dealing with fever
- Discussion of regional challenges and possible strategies: What is needed to ensure better, more rational and evidence-based management of fever in the population and in emergency care? Which resources and other stakeholders are important?
