Surgical debridement is one option and is typically performed under direct visualization of the wound. It is carried out until healthy tissue is felt to be encountered by the surgeon. Methylene blue has been described as a visual aid in the debridement process, including in the setting of infected prostheses. This study aimed to compare wound healing and device reimplantation times between patients who underwent methylene blue-guided debridement or routine wound care of their infected cardiac device implant pockets. Evaluating differences in rates of recurrent infection following reimplantation was a secondary goal of the study.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>Patients were identified for inclusion using a CPT code-based data pull and manual chart review. They were separated into groups dependent upon whether they received routine wound care or methylene blue-guided debridement. Chart review was conducted to estimate the number of days from explantation to wound healing and device reimplantation, and any documentation of reinfection was also recorded. Mann-Whitney U, Student's t, and Chi-square tests were performed using jamovi.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>To date, 13 patients have been included in the analysis. Methylene blue-guided debridement is associated with significantly faster time to wound healing (p = 0.011).

Pseudogout in Primary Care Practice: An Approach to Diagnosis and Treatment. 初级保健实践中的伪out:一种诊断和治疗方法。

In acute pseudogout attacks patients typically endorse rapid onset of pain and swelling, at times following mechanical trauma to the joint. Physical exam reveals warmth, swelling with effusion, tenderness, and limited range of motion of the involved joint(s) which can mimic gout flares and an overlying soft tissue infection so maintaining a broad differential is important in the workup of pseudogout attacks. Risk factors for pseudogout include advancing age, osteoarthritis, mechanical joint trauma or history of meniscectomy, and primary hyperparathyroidism. Diagnosis requires synovial fluid analysis with direct visualization of rhomboid shaped calcium pyrophosphate crystals. Acute attacks are managed with low-dose colchicine, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, or corticosteroids (either intra-articular injection or systemic therapy). The ideal approach combines pharmacologic and supportive measures such as application of ice or cooling packs and temporary joint rest with weight restriction along with analgesic medications. Currently there are no long-term therapies that prevent calcium pyrophosphate crystal formation; however, research is underway for agents such as probenecid, phosphocitrate, methotrexate, and interleukin-1 antagonists.</p>","PeriodicalId":39219,"journal":{"name":"South Dakota medicine : the journal of the South Dakota State Medical Association","volume":"78 4","pages":"177-181"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144327108","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
