This document discusses peritonitis, which is an inflammatory or suppurative reaction of the peritoneal lining caused by an irritant. Common causes include bacterial infections from GI issues like perforation or pancreatitis, or non-GI related issues. The peritoneum functions to lubricate organs, absorb and exude fluids, perceive pain, and mount inflammatory and immune responses. Peritonitis can be non-surgical or primary, caused by infection without surgery, or surgical/secondary, caused by infection after abdominal surgery. Spontaneous bacterial peritonitis is a type of ascitic fluid infection seen in patients with cirrhosis and ascites, caused by bacterial translocation from the intestines. Risk factors, symptoms,

Liver abcess made easy
This document provides information about liver abscess, including:
- Liver abscess is a localized infection in the liver parenchyma that can be caused by bacteria, fungi, or parasites. Common causes include appendicitis and spread of intestinal microbes.
- Symptoms include fever, cough, jaundice, abdominal pain, and weight loss. Diagnosis involves tests like abdominal CT scan, ultrasound, and liver biopsy.
- Treatment involves intravenous antibiotics, sometimes along with surgical drainage. Nursing care focuses on monitoring vital signs, administering IV antibiotics, wound care if drainage is present, and managing symptoms like fever and pain.
Portal hypertension radiological diagnosis and interventions
This document discusses portal hypertension, including its causes, diagnosis, and interventions. It describes how portal hypertension can be diagnosed using ultrasound, CT, MRI, and angiography by evaluating the portal vein diameter and flow, presence of collateral vessels, and hepatic and arterial changes. Interventions to treat portal hypertension aim to reduce portal blood pressure, such as transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) placement, or palliate symptoms like variceal embolization. Recanalization of portal veins and revision of shunts are also discussed.
Preparation of a patient of obstructive jaundice and periampullary carcinoma
This document discusses the preoperative preparation and management of a patient with obstructive jaundice. It notes that such patients are usually anemic so blood transfusions may be needed. It also discusses correcting dehydration, vitamin K deficiency, renal impairment, infection risk and malnutrition. The case involves a 60-year old male with jaundice, clay-colored stools and weight loss being evaluated for obstructive jaundice. On examination, a lump is palpated in the right upper abdomen. Further sections discuss periampullary anatomy and carcinomas, investigations including blood tests, imaging and biopsies, and treatment options like Whipple procedure or palliative surgeries.

Common causes include lesions or malformations in the posterior fossa, tumors, meningitis, or intrauterine infections. Symptoms include irritability, vomiting, headache, and cognitive/behavioral changes. Imaging studies like CT scans and MRI are used for diagnosis. Treatment options include medical management with drugs to reduce CSF production or surgical placement of a VP shunt. Long-term outcomes include increased risks for

This document discusses necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC), the most common gastrointestinal emergency in the NICU. NEC is an acute inflammatory injury of the intestines that predominantly affects preterm and low birth weight infants. The etiology is multifactorial involving intestinal ischemia, abnormal bacterial colonization, impaired gut barrier function, and an immature immune response in preterm infants. Diagnosis is based on clinical signs and radiological findings like pneumatosis intestinalis. Treatment involves withholding feeds, antibiotics, surgery for perforation. Biomarkers in stool, urine and blood are being studied to aid early diagnosis and predict disease severity and outcome.

He was admitted and managed conservatively with blood transfusions, PPI, insulin, and holding the warfarin. He was discharged with recommendations for gastroenterology follow up.
Cell salvage
This document summarizes cell salvage, a process where blood lost during surgery is collected, filtered, and reinfused back to the patient. It discusses the indications, contraindications, and procedure for cell salvage. Some key points include:
- Cell salvage involves collecting blood from the surgical site, removing clots and debris, separating red blood cells from other components, and reinfusing the red cells.
- It is indicated for surgeries with anticipated blood loss over 1 liter or 20% of blood volume to avoid allogeneic transfusions.
- Contraindications include the presence of contaminants like urine or cancer cells that could be reinfused.
- The procedure

Pulmonary embolism is caused by blockage of the pulmonary arteries or its branches by emboli. It has an incidence of 1.5 per 1000 person-years and is a common cause of unexpected death. Risk factors include activated platelets, inflammation, prothrombotic states, and clinical risk factors such as recent surgery or trauma, cancer, older age, and genetic factors. Diagnosis involves assessment of symptoms, blood tests like D-dimer and troponin, imaging like CT pulmonary angiogram, and risk scores. Treatment depends on risk stratification but generally involves anticoagulation with heparin or novel oral anticoagulants, and thrombolysis for higher risk cases.

Intra cranial pressure
The document discusses cerebrospinal fluid and intracranial pressure. It covers topics like CSF production and circulation, the Monroe-Kellie doctrine which states that the intracranial vault volume is fixed, causes of increased ICP like masses or edema, signs and symptoms of elevated ICP, herniation, ICP monitoring methods, normal vs abnormal ICP waveforms, and management approaches like maintaining ICP and CPP. Key interventions discussed are surgical evacuation, ventriculostomy, mannitol and hypertonic saline administration, and decompressive craniectomy.
Intra cranial pressure
Cerebrospinal fluid is produced in the brain ventricles and circulates around the brain and spinal cord before being absorbed. Increased intracranial pressure can result from mass lesions, increased CSF or blood volume, and decreases cerebral perfusion pressure. Signs and symptoms include reduced consciousness, Cushing's triad, and herniation. Management aims to maintain ICP below 20-25 mmHg and CPP above 60 mmHg through medical and surgical interventions.
Pemphigus vulgaris
This document presents a case study of a 36-year-old female patient diagnosed with pemphigus vulgaris, an autoimmune blistering disease of the skin and mucous membranes. The patient presented with fluid-filled lesions over her trunk and extremities that ruptured and formed erosions. A biopsy, Tzank smear, and immunofluorescence testing confirmed the diagnosis of pemphigus vulgaris. She was treated with corticosteroids, immunosuppressants, antibiotics, and supportive care. Her hospital course was monitored for treatment responses and adverse drug reactions.
