what are the different sources of infection of acute osteomyelitis ?
haematogenous spread - children and elderly
local spread from contiguous site of infection - trauma, surgery
secondary to vascular insufficiency
what are source of infection of AOM in infants, children and adults ?
infants - infected umbilical cord
children - boils, tonsillitis, skin abrasion
adults - UTI, arterial line
what is the most common organisms involved in osteomyelitis for infants children and adults ?
STAPH AUREUS FOR ALL
infants - group B strep, E coli
children - strep progenies, haemophilus
adults - TB, pseudomonas
specific diabetic foot - anaerobes sickle cell - salmonella fishermen - mycobacterium marinum HIV - candida
what is the pathophysiology of osteomyelitis ?
starts at metaphysis vascular stasis and acute inflammation suppuration increased pressure release of pressure into joint/subperiosteal/medulla necrosis of bone - sequestrum new bone formation - involucrum resolution
what are clinical features of osteomyelitis in infants ?
may be minimal or very ill failure to thrive drowsy/ irritable metaphyseal tenderness and swelling decreased ROM positional change commonest round knee
what are clinical features of osteomyelitis in children ?
severe pain reluctant to move/weight bear tender fever and tachycardia malaise toxaemia
what are the different sources of infection of acute osteomyelitis ?
