The fever index measured the responses of 102 women with serious pelvic infections who had received either chloramphenicol or clindamycin, in combination with other antibiotics. There was no statistical difference in the number of degree hours in the two populations. Patients with salpingo-oophoritis had significantly more fever than those with a septic abortion. Bacteremia did not delineate a group of women with a markedly elevated febrile response. Within the populaton with salpingo-oophoritis, neither black women nor women with an intrauterine device in place had significantly more fever, but patients requiring operation had more fever while those with an endocervical culture positive for the gonococcus at the time of admission had the most favorable clinical response. The significance of these findings is discussed.
发热指数测量了102名患有严重盆腔感染的女性的反应，这些女性接受了氯霉素或克林霉素与其他抗生素联合治疗。两组人群的发热度数小时数无统计学差异。输卵管卵巢炎患者的发热明显高于败血症性流产患者。菌血症并未区分出一组发热反应明显升高的女性。在输卵管卵巢炎患者群体中，黑人女性和宫内放置节育器的女性发热均无明显增加，但需要手术的患者发热更多，而入院时宫颈管培养淋病奈瑟菌阳性的患者临床反应最为良好。对这些发现的意义进行了讨论。
