35.5 C - 36.5 C
36.5 C - 37.5 C
45 C
44 C - 45 C
Reflects the balance between ________ and ________.
Heat Production and Heat Loss
Core Temperature
Surface Temperature
Muscle Activity
Type or kind of Temperature:
Deep tissues: Body Cavities
Remains relatively constant, doesn’t depend on the temperature of the place you are in, except when you get infected by virus that causes heat produced or heat loss.
(a)
Type or kind Temperature:
Skin, Subcutaneous and Fats
It is nit constant, directly relies on whatever environment gives you

NURSING INTERVENTIONS WHEN THE PATIENT IS EXPERIENCING HYPERTHERMIA, HYPERPYREXIA
Monitor Vital Signs
Remove excess blankets when client feels warm; Provide Extra warmth when client feels chilled
Provide Adequate nutrition and fluid
Reduce Physical Activities
Apply warm blankets
NURSING INTERVENTIONS WHEN THE PATIENT IS EXPERIENCING HYPOTHERMIA
Monitor Vital Signs
Provide Warm Environment
Apply Warm Blankets
Provide dry clothing
Reduce Physical Activities
Factors which affect heat production
(ways how your body produces heat):
we can regulate them, can do intermittent fasting
Basal Metabolic Rate
Muscle Activity
Thyroxine Output
Epinephrine & Norepinephrine
Fever
Factors which affect heat production
(ways how your body produces heat):
people who engage in physical activity produces more heat, disperse because of sweating/to prevent overheating.
Muscle Activity
Basal Metabolic Rate
Thyroxine Output
Fever
Factors which affect heat production
(ways how your body produces heat):
thyroid hormones, regulate metabolism, high thyroid output can’t tolerate high temperature.
Fever
Thyroxine Output
Muscle Activity
Basal Metabolic Rate
Factors which affect heat loss:
No surface-to-surface contact
Radiation
Conduction (TSB)
Convection
Vaporization (TSB)
Factors which affect heat loss:
Has surface to surface contact
Radiation
Conduction (TSB)
Convection
Vaporization (TSB)
Factors which affect heat loss:
Surface to surface contact, air current
Convection
Vaporization (TSB)
Radiation
Conduction (TSB)
Factors which affect heat loss:
Losing heat through the conversion of water to gas (evaporation of sweat).
Taking a Bath
Vaporization (TSB)
Convection
Conduction (TSB)
Radiation
Factors affecting body temperature:
as we grow older, our metabolism is getting slow
Age
Diurnal Variations
Exercise
Hormones
Factors affecting body temperature:
circadian rhythms, specific time of the day whereas hormones is high and low, morning high/night low
Diurnal Variations
Exercise
Hormones
Stress
Factors affecting body temperature:
the higher activity, the higher muscle contraction, the higher temperature
Exercise
Stress
Hormones
Environment
