Your patient is complaining of chills, back pain and body weakness. You took the vital signs and recorded the following: PR= 72 bpm; RR= 14 cpm; BP= 120/70 mmHg; Temp= 35.5 C; Pain Scale of 5. What is your patient experiencing?



Answer :

Answer: Hypothermia due to Infection

Explanation:

Given the combination of chills, back pain, body weakness, and notably low body temperature (hypothermia), it is likely that the patient is experiencing an infection or another serious condition that has led to these symptoms. The presence of chills and low temperature could suggest a systemic infection such as sepsis or an inflammatory response in the body.
