Various tests were performed, checking for...

  • Differential Diagnosis of Fever
    Differential diagnosis of fever Infectious Diseases Department 2021 The fever is the earliest and the most constant sign of almost all infectious diseases. It is also considered as defensive mechanism of body. Definition The fever is thermoregulatory increase of body temperature, which corresponds to organism’s regulated response to disease. It means that the body increases it’s temperature above normal itself. The pyrogens are substances that entering to body from outside or being synthesized inside body cause fever Depending on origin they can be: – exogenic (bacterial and non bacterial) – endogenic (leucocytar) The mechanism of action can be: – primary – secondary Classification of fever of unknown origin (FUO) by Petersdorf-Bisson (algorithm of diagnostic search) I. Confirming the presence of FUO criteria a. description of fever (type of increase, height, duration, type of curve, presence and time of organic involvement, influence of drugs etc. ) b. exclusion of acute specific infections, with the exception of HIV infection and TB II. Searching causes of FUO a. HIV infection b. TB c. non specific infections: – urological (kidney abscesses or carbuncle) – genital infections – subdiaphragmal or subhepatic abscesses – osteomyelitis – cholangitis (torpid course, empyma of gallbldder) – appendicitis – infective endocarditis (acute and subacute) – surgical sepsis – small pelvic phlebitis – chronic tonsillitis fg: Lymphoma, arm&rus variant with other termsIII. Excluding non-infectious diseases 1.tumors 2. systemic diseases of connective tissue Exclusion of rare causes of FUO • recurrent thrombosis of small branches of pulmonary arteries • thireoiditis • FMF • fever caused by drugs (fever without chills, sweats, appears no later than 2-nd day of treatment, continues during the all period of drug intake, can last up to 23 days after discontinuation, returns when causative drug reintroduced) • hypothalamic disorders (trauma, organic pathology, etc) • constitutional (less than 1%) • artificial fever of hysteric patients, prisoners Course of fever I.

  • Hazards Associated with the Use of Laboratory Animals*
    Occupational Health for Personnel Handling Laboratory Animals Hazards Associated With The Use Of Laboratory Animals* Working with laboratory animals, or tissues from laboratory animals, is associated with potential health hazards to humans. These hazards include 1) bites, scratches, and kicks; 2) allergic reactions; and 3) possible zoonotic diseases. The key to minimizing these hazards is awareness and proper training. An on-line program titled “Occupational Health and Safety for Personnel with Laboratory Animal Contact” is mandatory for all personnel with animal contact at Wright State University. This course MUST be satisfactorily completed prior to access to the Laboratory Animal Resources facility. The course addresses the risks associated with contact with laboratory animals and requires the completion of a short test at course conclusion to successfully register. The course is accessible at http://www.wright.edu/lar/LARsafety.htm. Physical Hazards Animal Bites, Scratches, Kicks, etc. Animal bites, scratches, and kicks are ubiquitous hazards whenever working with animals, either in the laboratory, or in other locations. Most of these injuries, however, are easily preventable with proper training in animal handling procedures and by proper procedures. Knowledge of animal behavior is important in predicting and responding to the animal’s reaction. It is essential, both for the animal's and for the human handler's sake that each person be properly trained and proficient at handling the animals under their care. New personnel should be fully trained and instructed before handling animals. All personnel injured by animal bites or scratches should immediately report the incident to their supervisor and the Department of Environmental Health and Safety after initial first aid procedures have been completed.
