Hand hygiene01:23

Hand hygiene

6.1K
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.

Antigens Involved in Adaptive Immunity01:26

Antigens Involved in Adaptive Immunity

1.6K
An antigen is any substance the immune system identifies as foreign and potentially harmful to the body, prompting an immune response. Antigens have two functional properties: immunogenicity and reactivity. Immunogenicity is the ability of an antigen to stimulate a specific immune response. At the same time, reactivity describes the antigen's ability to react with the cells and antibodies produced in response to it.

Muscles of the Forearm that Move the Hand and Fingers

2.7K
The muscles of the forearm that move the wrist, hand, and digits are numerous and diverse. They can be classified into two groups based on their location and function — the anterior and posterior compartment muscles.
Anterior Compartment
The anterior compartment muscles originate from the humerus. They primarily function as flexors and are also known as flexor muscles. They typically insert on the carpals, metacarpals, and phalanges. The superficial layer includes the flexor carpi...

Self-Evaluation: Self-Enhancement and Self-Verification

5.8K
Social psychologists have documented that feeling good about ourselves and maintaining positive self-esteem is a powerful motivator of human behavior (Tavris & Aronson, 2008). In the United States, members of the predominant culture typically think very highly of themselves and view themselves as good people who are above average on many desirable traits (Ehrlinger, Gilovich, & Ross, 2005). Often, our behavior, attitudes, and beliefs are affected when we experience a threat to our...

Sternberg's Triangular Theory of Love02:15

Sternberg's Triangular Theory of Love

45.9K
We typically love the people with whom we form relationships, but the type of love we have for our family, friends, and lovers differs. Robert Sternberg (1986) proposed that there are three components of love: intimacy, passion, and commitment. These three components form a triangle that defines multiple types of love: this is known as Sternberg’s triangular theory of love. Intimacy is the sharing of details and intimate thoughts and emotions. Passion is the physical attraction—the...

Area of Science:

  • Rheumatology
  • Orthopedic Surgery

Background:

  • Gout in the hand is rare and frequently diagnosed at advanced stages.
  • Clinical signs include subcutaneous tophi on finger joints, osteoarticular, tendinous, or neurological lesions, often posing diagnostic challenges.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present the diverse clinical presentations of gout in the hand.
  • To detail the surgical management strategies for hand gout.

Main Methods:

  • Review of clinical manifestations of gout in the hand.
  • Analysis of surgical interventions and outcomes for hand gout.

Main Results:

  • Surgical treatment for hand gout is infrequent and typically considered after conservative medical management.
  • Combined surgical and medical treatment can lead to recovery of hand function.

Conclusions:

  • Gout in the hand requires a high index of suspicion due to its rarity and complex presentation.
  • Timely and appropriate medical and surgical interventions are crucial for functional recovery.
