Skin Cancer01:30

Skin Cancer

4.4K
Skin cancer is a type of cancer that occurs when there is an abnormal growth of skin cells, usually triggered by damage to the DNA within the skin cells. It is primarily caused by exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun or artificial sources like tanning beds. Skin cancer is the most common type of cancer worldwide, and its incidence continues to rise.
Basal Cell Carcinoma (BCC): BCC is the most common type of skin cancer, accounting for about 80% of cases. It typically develops in...

Diabetes Mellitus: Type 2 and Gestational

2.7K
Type 2 diabetes, characterized by insulin resistance, arises when the insulin receptors on cells lose responsiveness to insulin, diminishing the cell's capacity to take up glucose, resulting in elevated blood glucose levels. To receive a diagnosis of Type 2 diabetes, a series of blood glucose tests are necessary to assess whether the blood glucose falls within normal parameters. If the result is out of the normal range, a patient may be diagnosed as prediabetic or diabetic, depending on the...

Nursing Diagnosis

2.9K
Following assessment, a nursing diagnosis is the next step in the nursing process. It begins after the nurse has collected and recorded the patient data. The purpose of diagnosing is to identify how the client responds to actual or potential health processes, identify factors that bestow or that cause health problems, the etiologies, and identify resources or strengths the individual, group, or community can draw on to prevent or resolve problems.
The nursing diagnosis focuses on evidence-based...

Formulating and Validating Nursing Diagnosis II

2.9K
Nursing diagnoses represent a problem validated by major defining characteristics. There are four categories of nursing diagnoses: problem-focused, risk, health promotion or wellness, and syndrome. The anatomy of a nursing diagnosis includes three components: problem statement or diagnostic label, defining characteristics, and related factors.
Risk nursing diagnoses represent clinical judgments of an individual, family, or community more vulnerable to developing the health problem than others...

Pathophysiology of Diabetes01:20

Pathophysiology of Diabetes

1.2K
Diabetes mellitus is a chronic metabolic disorder characterized by hyperglycemia. The four categories of diabetes are type 1 diabetes, type 2 diabetes, other specific types of diabetes, and gestational diabetes.
Type 1 diabetes is characterized by autoimmune-mediated destruction of pancreatic β cells, with environmental factors potentially triggering this process in genetically susceptible individuals. Despite many not having a family history, certain genes increase susceptibility,...

Changes in Skin Color: Clinical Perspectives

2.1K
The first thing a clinician sees is the skin, so the examination of the skin should be part of any thorough physical examination. Most skin disorders are relatively benign, but a few, including melanomas, can be fatal if untreated. A couple of the more noticeable disorders, albinism and vitiligo, affect the appearance of the skin and its accessory organs.
Albinism
Albinism is a genetic disorder that affects (completely or partially) the coloring of skin, hair, and eyes. The defect is primarily...

  • Obstetrics
  • Immunodermatology

Background:

  • Pregnancy dermatoses encompass a range of inflammatory skin disorders unique to pregnancy or the postpartum period.
  • This group includes conditions such as pemphigoid gestationis, polymorphic eruption of pregnancy, intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy, atopic eruption of pregnancy, and pustular psoriasis of pregnancy.

Approach:

  • This article presents a comprehensive literature review of pregnancy dermatoses.
  • The review focuses on nomenclature, epidemiology, pathogenesis, clinical presentation, diagnosis, differential diagnosis, maternal and fetal risks, and treatment strategies.

Key Points:

  • Accurate diagnosis and management of pregnancy dermatoses are crucial for maternal and fetal well-being.
  • Understanding the specific characteristics of each condition aids in effective clinical decision-making.
  • Early recognition and appropriate treatment can mitigate potential complications.

Conclusions:

  • This review aims to enhance clinician awareness and proficiency in diagnosing and managing pregnancy dermatoses.
  • Improved understanding facilitates better patient outcomes for both mother and fetus.
  • Further research into the pathogenesis and treatment of these conditions is warranted.
