Based on the presence or absence of fever during the peripartum period, the subjects were divided into a fever group and a non-fever group. Maternal temperature data during the peripartum period, along with maternal and neonatal demographic and clinical characteristics, were collected.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Among the parturients receiving labor analgesia, 25.9% (43\/166) developed a fever during the peripartum period. Of these, 25.6% (11\/43) experienced their first fever after delivery, all occurring within 2\u2005h after delivery. Compared to the non-fever group, the fever group had longer durations of the first stage of labor, total labor duration, and epidural analgesia. Additionally, the fever group had a higher rate of meconium-stained amniotic fluid (grade III), used more analgesics, and had a higher rate of antibiotic use. However, no significant differences in adverse maternal and neonatal outcomes were observed between the two groups.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Fever can occur not only during labor but also for the first time after delivery. Although fever during the peripartum period increases the rate of maternal exposure to antibiotics, there were no significant differences in maternal or neonatal outcomes between the two groups.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.3389\/fgwh.2025.1541227","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,4,29]],"date-time":"2025-04-29T01:24:37Z","timestamp":1745889877000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3389\/crossmark-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Exploration of fever characteristics in parturients under continuous temperature monitoring during labor analgesia and analysis of the impact on maternal and neonatal outcomes: an observational study"],"prefix":"10.3389","volume":"6","author":[{"given":"Xia","family":"Li","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Junli","family":"Ma","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1965","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,4,29]]},"reference":[{"key":"B1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"7","DOI":"10.1016\/j.bjan.2018.08.002","article-title":"Combined spinal-epidural block for labor analgesia.
