dc.description.abstractIntroduction: We aimed to measure the level of knowledge about fever by reaching 300 mothers. If the level of information is found to be inadequate in accordance with the results, by alerting the authorities about the results and ensuring that they reach the public; We thought that it might be useful for many applications to hospitals, unnecessary antibiotic use, antibiotic resistance, reducing the panic level of families and relieving the state budget. As a matter of fact, we thought that the Ministry of Health is a valuable study to help the studies to be done today in order to shed light on how effective these advertisements are due to the fact that they were made before the public awareness activities and we published the information obtained today. Methods: Study was conducted with 300 mothers who applied to Pediatric Clinics between 2009-2010 under the permission of the ethics committee. Aim of correcting existing mistakes and statisticing the information we should provide to mothers. Results: 82% of the mothers who participated in our study had low socioeconomic level. Fever consciousness was low in 57% of our mothers. The rate of antibiotic use was 53%. According to the data of our study, 58% of mothers do not measure fever correctly. There is no fever measuring device in 45%. Discussion and Conclusion: We found that mothers' awareness of fever, their behaviors about febrile convulsions, and their awareness of antibiotic use were insufficient. We determined that the mother being a housewife, the mother's education level being low, socioeconomic level score was low, her husband's occupation, her husband's education was low, and fever awareness and antibiotic use were negatively affected. When we consider the results, we anticipate that mothers should be informed about fever, that they will make unnecessary applications to the child and that they will prevent delayed and inadequate intervention.en_US
