Virus would hamper the platelet in the bloodstream.

Releases of the pyrogens to kill the organism.

VIII. Theoretical Framework

Roys Adaptation Model: Roy focuses on the individual as a bio psychosocial adaptive system that employs a feedback cycle of input (stimuli), through-put (control processes), and output (behaviors or adaptive responses). Both the individual and the environment are sources of stimuli that require modification to promote adaptation, an ongoing purposive response. Adaptive responses contribute to health, which she defines as the process of being and becoming integrated; ineffective or maladaptive responses do not contribute to health. Each persons adaptation level is unique and constantly changing.
