The papules, nodules and abscesses may discharge blood-stained pus which, combined with pain, results in marked quality-of-life reduction. Sinus tracts and scarring may also result. Onset of HS is typically in the second to fourth decades and it affects about 1% of young European adults. There are links with smoking and obesity and an autosomal dominant pattern of inheritance is reported by one-third of patients. Medical management escalates from topical antimicrobials to oral tetracyclines, a combination of clindamycin and rifampicin typically given for 10 weeks, oral disease modifiers, and anti-tumour necrosis factor-alpha therapies. Excision of individual lesions has high recurrence rates which can be minimised by wider excisions, at the expense of longer healing times. Treatment of pain is a relatively neglected aspect of therapy. </p>","PeriodicalId":92877,"journal":{"name":"Australian infection control : official journal of the Australian Infection Control Association Inc","volume":"12 1","pages":"70-3"},"PeriodicalIF":4.4,"publicationDate":"2016-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4954339/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78439224","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, conventional Shewhart control charts rely on the availability of a run of predictable data values so that the average and its variability can be determined.

Pty Ltd], a new device designed for cleaning the biopsy/suction channel of flexible gastrointestinal endoscopes, was compared to reusable brushes in a clinical setting. A total of 53 endoscopes were tested with a microbiological assay. Directly after removing the endoscope from the patient, a sterile saline solution was flushed down the biopsy channel to provide a ‘before clean’ estimate of bioburden. Following a cleaning protocol with either of two manual cleaning devices – i.e. one pass with a Pull Thru or six passes with a reusable brush – a second volume of saline solution was used to provide an ‘after clean’ estimate. The protocols were compared for Log<sub>10</sub>Reduction in colony-forming units (cfu)/mL between the ‘before clean’ and ‘after clean’ samples. No significant difference was found between the two cleaning protocols (P=0.058) using a combined factorial analysis. The adjusted means for Log<sub>10</sub>Reduction (cfu/mL) were 3.003 (brush) and 3.302 (Pull Thru) with a standard error of difference of 0.154. It is concluded that the cleaning efficacy of one pass with the Pull Thru was as effective as six passes with a reusable brush.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":92877,"journal":{"name":"Australian infection control : official journal of the Australian Infection Control Association Inc","volume":"12 4","pages":"Pages 131-132, 134, 136, 138"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/S1329-9360(16)30004-9","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"56481982","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}
