Abstract

Normal body temperature is generally considered to be 36.8°C (98.2°F), with 37.7°C (99.9°F) as an upper limit in healthy adults.1 A wide range of biologic processes, some infectious and many noninfectious, can cause temperature elevation. Some of the noninfectious conditions can be as life-threatening as infectious ones.2 © 2010 Springer-Verlag US.
