The nursing diagnosis was hyperthermia manifested by an abnormal body temperature of 38.5°C as reported by the guardian. The plan was to assess the child's vital signs closely, check for signs of dehydration, perform tepid sponging, maintain adequate fluid intake, and administer antipyretics as needed.
