Pediatric fever is both an extremely common and yet highly challenging scenario faced regularly by emergency medicine physicians. A high degree of concern must always exist for the presence of a serious bacterial infection (SBI). This is especially true for infants due to their immature immune systems as well as to the limitations involved in obtaining a reliable history and physical exam. Evidence-based guidelines can assist the clinician in performing an appropriate work-up and treatment plan. However, clinical judgement always remains the physician’s most valuable tool. In areas where the guidelines are not clear, clinicians should exercise the highest degree of caution that a febrile child may have an SBI or other potentially life-threatening infectious pathology.
