Abstract:
Septic abortion is a rare, but potentially life-threatening condition. Quick diagnosis and treatment is essential for the outcome.

During evacuation severe bleeding and coagulopathy was seen. She was treated with multiple coagulation products but due to a life-threatening situation an acute hysterectomy was performed. She was discharged after nine days.

The causes of acute pancreatitis include:
Acute Respiratory Failure-I
Definition: It is defined by specific criteria based on blood gas measurements. Hypoxemia happens when the partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2) falls below 60 mmHg. At the same time,...
Acute Respiratory Failure-II
The underlying physiological abnormalities that contribute to hypoxemic respiratory failure include:
Acute Respiratory Failure-V
Ensure that patients are monitored continuously for their response to therapy, including changes in...
