Key words: Fever without origin, Urine bag, Squeezing disposable diapers, Urine dip sticks,
The most important innovations in the field of the diagnostic self help methods are not exactly innovations, but rather applications of the currently more used rapid tests (urine dip sticks, urine colture, C reactive protein, RAD test for the detection of SBEGA antigen on pharyngeal swab). The important thing is their rational use in diagnostic and therapeutic processes, in which the diagnostic test has its own role, but it doesn’t go out the really fundamental anamnesis and clinical valuation. This first article deals with tools available to a febrile 16 months child, whose health gives some little worries.
