S6 Flashcards
Risk factor of upper extremity DVT?
Central venous catheter and PICC(peripherally inserted central catheter)
Yong athletic males(spontaneous)
Thoracic outlet obstruction
CM?
Unilateral arm or forearm edema
Pain and heavy sensation
Erythema
Dilated subcutaneous Vien
Diagnosis?
Compression Doupler U/S
Management?
3-month anticoagulation
How to differentiate from venous line infection?
Unlike venous line infection, In DVT the venous catheter insertion site is normal.In infection(phlebitis the venous line become red)
Acute epididimitis cause?
Age < 35–sexualy transmited(Claymidia and Gonorhia)
Age > 35–Obstraction UT(choliform bacteria)
CM?
Unilaterral/Posterior testicular pain
Epididymal edema
Pain improves with elevation
Dysuria and frequency(If due to cholioform)
Diagnosis?
NAAT
Urinalysis/culture
Management?
Ceftriaxone plus doxycycline or
Levofloxacin
What to do inpatient suspected of VAP?
Do C-x-Ray
Take a sample from the lower part of the endotracheal tube
Start empiric therapy(G+.G-,P and MRSA) if abnormal CXR
Then decide on culture result and clinical improvement
Negative culture?
Stop antibiotic and search other cause
Positive culture and clinical improvement?
Adjust the empiric antibiotic
Positive culture w/o clinical improvement?
High likely VAP
Asses for Pneumonia complication
Consider changing AB
Asses other cause
VAP CM?
Develop after >48 hr Fever leukocytosis Infiltration on x-ray The difficulty of intubation(high RR and Low TV, deteriorating oxygenation)
Cause of nosocomial bloodstream infection inpatient have CVC?
Coagulase-negative staphylococci and S.A(Major cause)
Candida in 10 %
CM of colovesical fistula?
Pnumaturia
Fecaluria
Recurent UTI
Abdominal CT?
CT with oral/rectal contrast no Iv contrast(thickened Bw and fistula)
Colonoscopy to r/o colonic ca
risk factor?
diverticular disease
colonic Ca
chrons
Compartment syndrome dx?
Intracompartment Pressure measurement(needle manometry) Delta pressure (Diastolic blood pressure <30 at lesion site)
atelectasis x-ray feature?
Lung opacification
Mediastinal shift
Narrow gap b/n ribs
Management if due to plugging (mainly post oprative)?
Small plug: Pulmonary Exercise
Large: remove with bronchoscopy
types and cause of prosthetic valve dysfunction?
Transvalvular regurgitation(cusp degeneration)--commonly affect bioprosthetic valve Paravalvular leak(annular degeneration/IE--dehiscence)--commonly affect mechanical valve Valvular stenosis(valve thrombus)
diagnosis?
echocardiography
do coagulation studies additionally if stenotic
a complication of PVD?
MA-HA
HF
Thrombocytopnia
