What effect does a fever have on vital signs?

Fever: Generally you can attribute an increase pulse rate of 7% for every degree elevation of temperature above 100 f. Depending on the causes of the fever, there may also be an increase in respiratory rate, or a decrease in blood pressure may occur due to dehydration from fever.
