Question
A 5.5-year-old child developed a fever on the morning of August 24, 2014, and after diagnosis, medication was administered. By 6 PM, the fever temperature rose to 40 degrees Celsius. During preparations to go to the hospital, the child had a seizure and was urgently sent to the hospital for intravenous treatment. Mannitol was added the next day.
Answer
Febrile seizures are often related to the age of children and usually resolve naturally after the age of six. Strengthening the immune system, avoiding heat-related diseases, and promptly cooling down during fever are recommended. Mannitol is not necessary unless there is intracranial infection.
