MATERIALES Y MÉTODOS:  Estudio observacional, transversal, retrospectivo, descrip-tivo, abierto, no controlado consistente en la revisión de los expedientes de pacientes con histerectomía total abdominal. Se incluyeron pacientes programadas en la consulta externa sólo para histerectomía total abdominal con fiebre en las primeras 48 horas posintervención. De acuerdo con la distribución de cada variable se utilizaron estadís-tica paramétrica y no paramétrica, prueba de Wilcoxon y diferencia de proporciones.  RESULTADOS:  De 181 histerectomías practicadas, 34 pacientes tuvieron fiebre en las primeras 48 horas del posquirúrgico (19%). El tiempo quirúrgico fue de 116.7 ± 29.4 minutos y el sangrado de 498.5 ± 221.4 mL. Los leucocitos se incrementaron en 30% luego de la detección de fiebre con respecto a los valores prequirúrgicos; la hemoglobina disminuyó en 14%. El examen general de orina se reportó alterado en 29%. El primer pico febril alcanzó 38.6 ± 0.5 °C a las 32.8 ± 8.3 horas poscirugía con persistencia de 1.5 ± 0.9 días. El 44% de las pacientes recibió un antibiótico luego de la evidencia de fiebre de causa infecciosa; los más indicados fueron: nitrofurantoína y ciprofloxacina.  CONCLUSIONES:  Ante la evidencia del primer pico febril es importante efectuar dos pruebas de laboratorio: biometría hemática y examen general de orina y con base en los reportes decidir si es necesaria la prescripción o no de antibiótico.]]></p></abstract>
<abstract abstract-type="short" xml:lang="en"><p><![CDATA[Abstract  OBJECTIVE: To describe the paraclinical tests and the medications indicated to revert the fever in the patients who had it in the following 48 hours after the total abdominal hysterectomy.  MATERIALS AND METHODS: Observational, cross-sectional, retrospective, descriptive, open, uncontrolled study consisting of the review of the records of patients with total abdominal hysterectomy. Patients scheduled in the outpatient clinic were included only for total abdominal hysterectomy with fever in the first 48 hours post-intervention. According to the distribution of each variable, parametric and non-parametric statistics, Wilcoxon test and proportional differences were used.  RESULTS: Of 181 hysterectomies performed, 34 patients had fever in the first 48 hours after surgery (19%). The surgical time was 116.7 ± 29.4 minutes and the bleeding were 498.5 ± 221.4 mL. The leukocytes were increased by 30% after the detection of fever with respect to the presurgical values; hemoglobin decreased by 14%. The general urine test was reported altered in 29%. The first febrile peak reached 38.6 ± 0.5 °C at 32.8 ± 8.3 hours after surgery with a persistence of 1.5 ± 0.9 days. 44% of patients received an antibiotic after evidence of infectious cause fever; the most indicated were: nitrofurantoin and ciprofloxacin.  CONCLUSIONS: Given the evidence of the first febrile peak, it is important to perform two laboratory tests: blood count and urinalysis, and based on the reports, decide whether the prescription of antibiotics is necessary.]]></p></abstract>
