Q

Formalin:

  • Frozen Section or Embedded Section?
  • How does it work?
A

Formalin Fixation is used in the Embedded Section process - this is not used intraoepratively/ in emergency

  • Used in conjunction with wax and in general is better in terms of quality than Frozen sections
  • time consuming process

Works by causing crosslinking of collagen fibres maintaing architectural integrity of samples.

Q

Clostridium Difficile

  • Basic Bacteriology
  • Toxins
  • What facilitates its transmission
  • What is a spore
  • Risk Factors
  • Drugs used for treatment of C Diff
  • Treatment of Toxic Megacolon
A

Gram Positive, Spore Forming Rod - Facultative Anaerobe

Toxins - Enterotoxin A and Cytotoxin B

Spread - is conferred through highly resistant spores

Spore - spores are one cell organisms capable of giving rise to new individual organisms without sexual fusion

Risk Factors - Antibiotics, Anti Acids, Transmission

Treatment - Metronidazole PO, Vancomycin PO, Fidoxamicin

Toxic Megacolon - Resuscitate patient. Usually no place for further antibiotics. Laparatomy - Subtotal Colectomy + End Ileostomy Formation

Do wound protectors reduce the risk?

A

1) Not shaving
2) Good sterility practice
3) Perioperative/Postoperative antibiotics
4) Skin Prep
5) Not using incise drapes - Non idoine drape if necessary
6) Use a knife rather than diathermy for skin incision

Q

Why do abscesses form?

A

1) High Microbial Load at site
2) Anatomical Factors Causing confinement of the exudate
3) Hypoxic core of abscess leads to imedence of the normal pathogen eradication mechanisms (Free Radicals, phagocytosis)
