Abstract:

Statement of the problem: Osteomyelities is a bone infection which can reach the bone by traveling through the bloodstream or spreading from nearby tissue. Once considered an incurable condition, osteomyelitis can sometimes be successfully treated by surgery to remove parts of the bone that have died and antibiotic treatment. The purpose of this study is to show why the treatment of osteomyelitis is so difficult and often considered incurable. We show that to reach improvement, we need to look at the patient as a whole, not only at the disease. The methodology is presented in two case reports: the first one showing an infection resulting from knee fracture surgery done after a motorcycle accident that had been treated with the use of a large spectrum of antibiotics without any improvement. The second case was another hospital osteomyelitis after a postprosthesis infection in the knee which had been treated profusely with antibiotics with no improvement. Findings: Both cases were treated successfully taking out all the anti-inflammatory and antibiotic drugs, together with the use of Chinese dietary counselling, auricular acupuncture associated with apex ear bloodletting, in order to balance Yin, Yang, Qi, Blood energy and removing Heat retention following the theories of Traditional Chinese Medicine. In these two cases, the osteomyelitis symptoms were being maintained exactly by the aggressive intake of antibiotics, and its side effects, according to TCM reasoning. Conclusion: According to these two case reports, hospital osteomyelitis can be treated without the use of antibiotics.

Abstract:

Introduction: Several studies point out urinary tract infections as a widely common pathology worldwide. In Traditional Chinese Medicine the physiopathology of the disease is Kidney Yin deficiency, Blood deficiency and Heat Retention.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the possibility of treating urinary tract infections without using antibiotics.

Methods: The interpretation and analysis of recent articles regarding the treatment of urinary tract infections in Western Medicine, Traditional Chinese Medicine and Hippocratic Medicine. The description and analysis of two case-reports. The first from a 75-year-old woman and the second from a 45-year-old female patient both with symptoms of dysuria and diagnosed with urinary tract infection, with positive urine culture for bacteria.

Results: All patients presented improvement of the symptoms and urine cultures positive for bacteria before the treatment and negative after the treatment only with acupuncture, Chinese dietary counseling and apex ear bloodletting, not requiring antibiotics use in neither of the cases. Both patients presented complete improvement of urinary tract infections with one session of auricular acupuncture with apex ear bloodletting. The result for both cases appeared in a few days.

Conclusion: It is possible to treat urinary tract infections without using antibiotics, according to these two case reports. For this aim, it is important to treat the patient through an integral pathway, focusing the treatment in the energy disturbances, the underlying cause of the symptoms.

Abstract:

We introduces a collaborative, multidisciplinary effort, to engage physicians, nursing, allied providers and other care providers in a process that could be conducive for proactive implementation of the Clinical Collaborating Council action plan at a “grass root level” of care at units at each of the Lee Health facilities. Program designed to reach our front line staff by formation of IP Process Improvement teams (IPPI) at each of our campuses. The long term objectives of our initiative was by creating a “mini IP”/champion on each unit , developing magnate program for inspiring IP’s and IP engagement, empowerment, and accountability at each campus. Main goals was to conduct case findings in order to determine status and opportunities for improvement in the treatment and prevention of infections, to monitor the process of care at the bedside, provide coaching and teaching, and analyze the clinical epidemiology data pertaining to process improvement initiatives, decrease morbidity/mortality related to infections and pre-infectious events and identify resources for prevention and control of infections. Effectiveness and outcome were evaluated on an ongoing basis. We redesign our interventions as recommended by our team. A system dashboard will be shared with Lee Health leadership on activities of IPPI of each hospital by IP coordinator. Each quarter hospitals presented the success story and work to the hospital leadership. Effective coordinated process resulted 85% implementation of our care bundles with eduction of device related infection, c. difficile and MRSA

Abstract:

Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) an arthropod-borne alphavirus is responsible for the emerging disease chikungunya fever. Chikungunya symptoms show fever, joint pain, nausea, muscle pain, and rash. Arthralgia is a major symptom of this disease and some patients recover early while others suffer for a very long time. To describe CHIKV genetic diversity and the clinical outcome from suspected patients attended at a Jamia Hamdard Institute of Medical Sciences (JHIMS) hospital in New Delhi (North India) from 2016.Whole genome sequences (WGS) of CHIKV have carried out three RT-PCR positive samples and assessed by phylogenetic analysis, in silico study for comparison of physiological properties of CHIKV proteins, antigenicity and B cell epitope prediction.  WGS of three CHIKV and comparison to S27 East/Central/South African (ECSA) strain of CHIKV are reported here. Of the 325 subjects, 118 (36.30%) were recorded positive by either RT-PCR or IgM ELISA. Clinical features of CHIKV of rash 47 (39.83%), joint pain 78 (66.10%), joint swelling 61 (51.69%) and some other symptoms such as headache, vomiting, etc.  Analysis of WGS showed the maximum number of mutations in a structural gene compared to the nonstructural gene. The study gives special importance for continuous surveillance of disease burden using multiple diagnostic tests, characterization, changes in vector-pathogen similarity and interaction of host-pathogen for development of suitable vaccine candidate and antivirals.

Abstract:

Introduction: ToRCH   is an acronym for four congenital infections that are sometimes difficult to distinguish: Toxoplasmosis, Rubella, Cytomegalovirus, and Herpes Simplex Virus. This group of organisms produces serious CNS and other infections, which are potentially preventable and treatable.

Methods: Neonates and infants with hydrocephalus (N = 65) identified via the outpatient department of the National Institute of Neurosciences and Hospital (NINS&H), were prospectively screened for ToRCH antibodies.  Patients with hydrocephalus secondary to tumor, trauma, hemorrhage, arachnoid cyst, and Dandy Walker Malformation were excluded from this study.

Results:  Evidence of 75.38% of patients was positive for ToRCH antibodies. T. Gondii IgG 18.5%, CMV IgM 9.2 %, CMV Ig G 47.7%, Rubella, and Herpesvirus 1& 2 antibodies were also identified.

Conclusion: The vast majority of cases of idiopathic neonatal hydrocephalus at one institution were post-infectious in etiology and related to ToRCH infections. Many of these cases could have been prevented with improved maternal education, screening and treatment. While this single institution study may not be representative of the entire population, further study and implementation of a standardized screening protocol would likely benefit this population.

Abstract:

South West Florida red tides are a natural phenomenon caused by dense aggregations of single cell or several species of unicellular organisms. Patches of discolored water, dead or dying fish, and respiratory irritants in the air often characterize these algal blooms. In humans, two distinct clinical entities, depending on the route of exposure, are associated with exposure to the Florida red tide toxins (particularly the brevetoxins).

The two known forms of red tide toxins-associated clinical entities in humans first characterized in Florida are an acute gastroenteritis with neurologic symptoms after ingestion of contaminated shellfish (i.e. NSP) and an apparently reversible upper respiratory syndrome after the inhalation of the aerosols of the dinoflagellate and their toxins. Red Tide Symptoms: IRRITATED EYES AND THROAT, COUGH, RUNNY NOSE TIGHTNESS OF CHEST OR WHEEZING,, SHORTNESS OF BREATH. Blue Green Algae Symptoms: Direct contact with the organism or breathing of toxin, Rash, Stomach cramps, Nausea, Diarrhea , Vomiting, Liver toxicity, Nervous system effects, Irritation of eyes, notes, throat.. Blue Green Algae is Cyanobacteria can live in freshwater,  saltwater or brackish water, most blue-green algae do not produce chemicals harmful to humans or animals, some types make natural substances called cyantotoxins. Safety concerns refrain form recreational, Fish caught near the bloom may have high accumulation of cyanotoxins in the organs
