Skin Diseases and Disorders01:23

Skin Diseases and Disorders

6.0K
Skin is the first line of defense and encounters a variety of microbes. Some pathogenic strains are often the cause of a broad range of infections of the skin and other body systems. These conditions can affect people of all ages and may have different causes, including genetic factors, infections, autoimmune reactions, environmental factors, and lifestyle choices.
Gram-positive Staphylococcus spp. and Streptococcus spp. are responsible for many of the most common skin infections. However, many...

Inflammatory Bowel Disease I: Ulcerative Colitis

1.3K
Introduction
Inflammatory bowel disease, or IBD, encompasses a group of disorders characterized by chronic inflammation or ulceration of the gastrointestinal tract.
Risk Factors
The exact cause of IBD remains unclear, although it is believed to be due to a mix of genetic, environmental, microbial, and immune factors. Genetic factors are significant in determining susceptibility to IBD, with family history being a critical risk factor. Individuals with a first-degree relative who has IBD are at...

Burn Injuries01:22

Burn Injuries

4.9K
Burn injuries occur when the skin and underlying tissues are damaged due to exposure to heat, electricity, chemicals, radiation, or friction. They can vary in severity, from minor superficial burns to severe deep burns that can be life-threatening.
The damage results in the death of skin cells, which can lead to a massive loss of fluid. Dehydration, electrolyte imbalance, and renal and circulatory failure follow, which can be fatal. Burn patients are treated with intravenous fluids to offset...

Hand hygiene01:23

Hand hygiene

6.4K
Asepsis is the practice of preventing or breaking the chain of infection. The nurse employs aseptic techniques to prevent the spread of microorganisms and reduce the risk of diseases. Hand hygiene is the cornerstone of aseptic techniques and is classified into medical and surgical asepsis. Medical asepsis includes hand hygiene and the use of gloves. Surgical asepsis, or the sterile technique, refers to practices that render and keep objects and areas free of microorganisms.
Hand washing...

    Area of Science:

    • Dermatology
    • Allergology
    • Occupational Health

    Background:

    • Hand dermatitis is a common condition with various etiologies.
    • Identifying specific contact allergens is crucial for effective management.

    Observation:

    • A 29-year-old male presented with dermatitis affecting the index and middle fingers of his right hand.
    • The affected area corresponded to the site where he held his cigarette/bidi.

    Findings:

    • Patch testing with bidi tobacco yielded a positive result.
    • This confirmed allergic contact dermatitis due to tobacco in bidis.

    Implications:

    • Highlights tobacco as a potential contact allergen in bidis.
    • Emphasizes the importance of detailed occupational and habitual history in diagnosing dermatitis.
    • Suggests avoidance of bidi use for affected individuals.
