Objective To explore the significance of serum C-reactive protein and WBC levels in the diagnosis of fever in children. Methods This study will adopt the methods of sampling survey and group study. Firstly, the subjects participating in the study will be selected through sampling survey. 120 febrile children will be selected from the period from January 2020 to January 2021. All children will be divided into bacterial infection group (n=40 cases), virus infection group (n=40 cases) and rheumatic disease group (n=40 cases) according to the discharge diagnosis results, and then 40 healthy children in the same period will be selected as the control group, The levels of serum C-reactive protein and WBC in four groups of children were tested, and the test results of four groups of children were compared. Results the level of serum C-reactive protein was: rheumatic disease group > bacterial infection group > viral infection group > control group; WBC level: bacterial infection group > rheumatic disease group > control group > virus infection group, the data were statistically significant P; The positive rate of bacterial infection group was the highest, followed by rheumatic disease group and virus infection group, and the positive rate of control group was the lowest. Conclusion the levels of serum C-reactive protein and WBC can provide reliable data reference for the clinical diagnosis of fever in children.
