P u r p o s e: Fever is the single most common problem in children visiting the emergency department. Fever is treated with a variety of methods, including the recommended combination of tepid massage, and antipyretics. We compared the effects of antipyretics and tepid massage for the management of febrile children. M e t h o d s: We conducted a prospective, randomized, controlled study to assess 49 children who visited to the ED, Kyung Hee Medical Center, with complaints of fever. Ages ranged from 3 to 60 months. Patients were grouped into one of the following three treatment groups: 1) acetaminophen only, 2) tepid massage only, and 3) acetaminophen and tepid massage. We measured body temperature at 0 and 30 minutes after management. R e s u l t s: The mean temperature at 30 minutes had decreased by initial temperature 0.58℃, 0.48℃, and 0.90℃ for groups 1), 2), and 3), respectively. Although body temperature for group 3) decreased to a greater degree than it did in the other groups, the differences were not statistically s i g n i f i c a n t . C o n c l u s i o n: Although tepid massage have been recommended for managing fever, their effect is still uncertain, so they are not recommended, especially in the cases of crowded emergency rooms.
