摘要
摘要:本病例报告了一名 34 岁的中东妇女,她出现了 II 型坏死性软组织感染(NSTI)的非典型症状。由于 II 型坏死性软组织感染诊断困难,患者病程较长。确诊后,患者接受了多次外科清创手术,需要接受抗生素和止痛治疗,之后才顺利出院回家。由于症状模糊且皮肤病变发生较晚,II 型 NSTI 的初步诊断对医疗服务提供者来说具有挑战性。一旦发现皮肤病变,必须迅速进行手术评估,以尽量降低发病率和死亡率。本文强调了诊断 II 型 NSTI 的复杂性以及全面了解病史和频繁进行体格检查的必要性。
Importance of a thorough history and physical examination: Case report of atypical necrotizing fasciitis.
Abstract: This case report presents a 34-year-old Middle Eastern woman with atypical symptoms of Type II Necrotizing Soft Tissue Infection (NSTI). Due to the difficulty in diagnosing Type II NSTI, the patient experienced protracted illness. Once diagnosed, the patient underwent multiple surgical debridement procedures requiring antibiotic and pain management therapy before being successfully discharged home. Initial diagnosis of Type II NSTI is challenging to the provider due to vague symptoms and late occurrence of cutaneous changes. When cutaneous lesions are identified, rapid surgical evaluation is imperative to minimize morbidity and mortality. This paper emphasizes the complexity of diagnosing Type II NSTI and the need for a comprehensive history and frequent physical examinations.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of the American Association of Nurse Practitioners (JAANP) is a monthly peer-reviewed professional journal that serves as the official publication of the American Association of Nurse Practitioners.
Published since 1989, the JAANP provides a strong clinical focus with articles related to primary, secondary, and tertiary care, nurse practitioner education, health policy, ethics and ethical issues, and health care delivery. The journal publishes original research, integrative/comprehensive reviews, case studies, a variety of topics in clinical practice, and theory-based articles related to patient and professional education. Although the majority of nurse practitioners function in primary care, there is an increasing focus on the provision of care across all types of systems from acute to long-term care settings.
