| dc.description.abstract | Sótthiti með óráði er algengt vandamál á bráðamóttökum og legudeildum sjúkrahúsa. Mismunagreiningar eru fjöldamargar og við uppvinnslu þessara sjúklinga er mikilvægt að hafa þær allar í huga. Sýkingar eru ofarlega á lista vegna bráð- og alvarleika en aðrar mismunagreiningar geta einnig verið hættulegar heilsu og þarfnast skjótrar greiningar og meðferðar. Hér er rakin sjúkrasaga 58 ára gamals manns sem kom á bráðamóttöku með hækkaðan líkamshita og óráð. Vönduð sögutaka og skoðun ásamt hnitmiðuðum rannsóknum gaf sjúkdómsgreiningu sem leiddi til viðeigandi meðferðar. | is |
| dc.description.abstract | Fever complicated by delirium is a common problem in emergency departments and inpatient wards. There are various possible causes that must all be contemplated. Infections are prominent causes due to acuteness and severity, but when generating a differential diagnosis, other causes may be life-threatening and require swift diagnosis and management. We present here a case of a 58 year old man presenting at the emergency department with fever and delirium. After comprehensive history-taking and examination, alongside targeted testing, the correct diagnosis was ascertained, leading to appropriate treatment. | en |
