Abstract

Abstract We surveyed internal medicine residents regarding how they approach febrile patients in cross-cover settings. Residents frequently use the term “full fever work-up,” and rely on this for sign-out. Despite this, residents felt fever work-ups were not evidenced-based, and definitions of when and how to respond to a fever varied.
