Nephrotic Syndrome I : Introduction01:24

Nephrotic Syndrome I : Introduction

361
Nephrotic Syndrome is a chronic kidney disorder defined by clinical findings such as severe proteinuria, hypoalbuminemia, hyperlipidemia, and edema. These symptoms result from damage to the glomeruli, the kidney’s filtering units, increasing their permeability to proteins.Definition and Meaning:Proteinuria, defined as the loss of more than 3.5 grams of protein per day in adults, is a crucial feature of nephrotic syndrome. This condition is often accompanied by edema, the accumulation of...

Nephrotic Syndrome II : Assessment and Medical Management

115
IntroductionNephrotic syndrome is a kidney disorder marked by excessive protein loss in the urine, leading to various systemic complications. This condition often results from damage to the glomeruli—the kidney's filtering units—causing proteinuria, low blood protein levels, and fluid retention. Understanding the assessment, diagnosis, and management of nephrotic syndrome is essential for effective treatment and prevention of further kidney damage.AssessmentPatient History: Document...

Acute Pyelonephritis I: Introduction01:27

Acute Pyelonephritis I: Introduction

312
Pyelonephritis is a bacterial infection that primarily affects the renal parenchyma and collecting system, including the renal pelvis, tubules, and interstitial tissue of one or both kidneys. It can be classified as either acute—a sudden, severe infection—or chronic, which refers to long-term or recurrent kidney infections.The primary cause of acute pyelonephritis (APN) is bacterial infection, with Escherichia coli accounting for approximately 70-80% of cases. Other bacteria, such...

Nephrotic Syndrome III : Nursing Management

187
Nursing management for nephrotic syndrome adapts as the disease progresses, with strategies evolving to address advancing symptoms and complications.Early-Stage Management In the early stages, nursing interventions for nephrotic syndrome resemble those used in managing acute glomerulonephritis, focusing on symptom monitoring, fluid balance, and managing mild to moderate edema.Vital Signs: Regularly monitor blood pressure, pulse, respiratory rate, and temperature to promptly identify...

Tonsillitis I: Introduction01:30

Tonsillitis I: Introduction

1.2K
Tonsillitis is inflammation of the tonsils, which are two lymphoid tissue masses at the back of the throat. This condition can cause discomfort and irritation in the throat.
Etiology
Three primary contributing factors have been identified.

Gastritis-II: Pathophysiology01:17

Gastritis-II: Pathophysiology

984
Gastritis is marked by disruption of the mucosal barrier that usually protects the stomach tissue from digestive juices and manifests in acute and chronic forms.
In acute gastritis, the gastric mucosa becomes swollen and red and undergoes superficial erosion. Superficial ulceration may lead to bleeding.
In chronic gastritis, persistent or repeated insults lead to chronic inflammatory changes and, eventually, thinning or atrophy of the gastric tissue.
Gastritis can stem from various causes, each...

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Dermatology
  • Rheumatology

Background:

  • Sweet syndrome, or acute febrile neutrophilic dermatosis, typically presents with skin lesions and fever.
  • Ocular involvement in Sweet syndrome is uncommon and usually confined to the anterior segment.

Observation:

  • A case of a 45-year-old Asian female with febrile illness and rash.
  • The patient presented with bilateral panuveitis and haemorrhagic occlusive retinal vasculitis.

Findings:

  • Skin biopsy confirmed Sweet Syndrome.
  • Ocular inflammation resolved with corticosteroids and cyclophosphamide.
  • Despite treatment, the patient experienced permanent severe visual impairment.

Implications:

  • Sweet syndrome should be considered in febrile patients with skin lesions and uveitis.
  • This case highlights the potential for severe posterior segment ocular involvement in Sweet syndrome.
  • Early recognition and multidisciplinary management are vital to prevent vision loss.
