2.0K
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...

Transmission-based Precautions II: Airborne and Protective Environment

1.3K
Transmission-based precautions are for patients infected or suspected to be infected (or colonized) with organisms posing a significant risk to others. The transmission precautions include airborne and protective environment precautions.
Airborne precautions:
Use airborne precautions when treating patients known or suspected to have diseases that spread through the air—for example, tuberculosis or measles. These organisms are present in smaller droplets expelled by an infected person and...

Area of Science:

  • Epidemiology
  • Infectious Diseases
  • Public Health

Background:

  • Monkeypox is an endemic viral disease in parts of Africa.
  • The World Health Organization declared monkeypox a public health emergency of international concern (PHEIC).
  • Global spread necessitates standardized control measures and increased surveillance.

Conclusions:

  • A thorough understanding of monkeypox lesions and clinical presentation is vital.
  • Standardized diagnostic and management protocols are essential for controlling spread.
  • International cooperation and surveillance are key to addressing the PHEIC.
