Vücut sıcaklığında yükselme olarak tanımlanan ateş, çocukluk döneminde sık görülen ve aileleri en fazla endişelendiren durumlardandır. Ateşin ve ateşe yaklaşımın sağlık çalışanları, aileler ve çocuğun bakımını üstlenen kişilerce iyi bilinmesi gereklidir. Ateşle ilgili bilgilerin sürekli güncellenmesi, ateş ölçümünde farklı yöntemler kullanılması ve ateş tedavisinde farklı görüşlerin olması gibi nedenlerle, yapılan çalışmalar ateş korkusunun hem aileler hem de sağlık profesyonelleri arasında hala devam ettiğini göstermektedir.
