DIFFERENCE+BETWEEN+HYPERTHERMIA+AND+HYPERPYREXIA

In pyrexia/ hyperpyrexia the set-point in the hypothalamus is increased to induce shivering and vasoconstriction for retaining heat. In Hyperthermia the set-point in the hypothalamus isn't changed.

there is a difference: hyperthermia is when body temperature becomes elevated, as methods for thermoregulation are not as effective. therefore, the body is absorbing more heat than it is dissipating.also known as overheating of the body

fever/pyrexia is body temperature that is high as a result of bacterial or viral infections
