Hand hygiene01:23

Hand hygiene

3.1K
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.

Clinical Applications of Epidermal Stem Cells01:19

Clinical Applications of Epidermal Stem Cells

2.7K
Epidermal stem cells (EpiSCs) are mainly located at the basal layer of the epidermis. These cells repair minor injuries of the skin and replace dead skin cells. However, EpiSCs’ cannot heal severe wounds such as major burns or those from diabetes or hereditary disorders. In such cases, culturing the epidermal stem cells from the patient is possible and has yielded successful treatment options, such as laboratory-grown skin grafts. These grafts are synthesized using a patient’s own...

Skin Diseases and Disorders

2.8K
Skin is the first line of defense and encounters a variety of microbes. Some pathogenic strains are often the cause of a broad range of infections of the skin and other body systems. These conditions can affect people of all ages and may have different causes, including genetic factors, infections, autoimmune reactions, environmental factors, and lifestyle choices.
Gram-positive Staphylococcus spp. and Streptococcus spp. are responsible for many of the most common skin infections. However, many...

Assessment of the Cardiovascular System III: Palpation

160
Palpation involves feeling the body to evaluate texture, size, consistency, and tenderness for assessing cardiovascular health. The following steps are organized in a head-to-toe order:
Jugular Venous Pressure (JVP) Measurement
Position the patient at a thirty- to forty-five-degree angle or in a semi-fowler's position. Look for the highest point of pulsation in the internal jugular vein and measure the vertical distance to the angle of Loius or sternal angle. A normal JVP is 3-4 cm above...

Area of Science:

  • Dermatology
  • Immunology
  • Molecular Biology

Background:

  • Hand eczema is a prevalent skin condition with significant chronic potential and diverse clinical presentations.
  • Current treatments for hand eczema are limited, and treatment failure is common.
  • Understanding the underlying molecular mechanisms of hand eczema is crucial for therapeutic advancement.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the current understanding of hand eczema, including its classification, consequences, and treatment challenges.
  • To explore recent findings on shared molecular profiles across hand eczema subtypes.
  • To evaluate the effectiveness of prevention strategies for hand eczema.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of existing studies on hand eczema.
  • Analysis of research on molecular profiles of different hand eczema subtypes.
  • Evaluation of intervention studies focusing on hand eczema prevention.

Main Results:

  • Hand eczema frequently occurs early in life, tends to become chronic, and has substantial consequences.
  • Despite varied etiologies and clinical types, hand eczema subtypes appear to share common molecular characteristics.
  • Preventive interventions for hand eczema have demonstrated high effectiveness.

Conclusions:

  • The shared molecular basis of hand eczema subtypes presents a promising avenue for developing new, broadly applicable treatments.
