  • Emergency Dermatology and Need of Dermatological Intensive Care Unit (DICU) Iffat Hassan, Parvaiz a Rather
    Journal of Pakistan Association of Dermatologists 2013;23 (1):71-82. Review Article Emergency dermatology and need of dermatological intensive care unit (DICU) Iffat Hassan, Parvaiz A Rather Postgraduate Department of Dermatology, STD & Leprosy, Govt. Medical College, Srinagar, J & K India Abstract Dermatological emergencies comprise diseases with severe alterations in structure and function of the skin, with some of them leading to acute skin failure that demands early diagnosis, hospitalization, careful monitoring and multidisciplinary intensive care to minimize the associated morbidity and mortality. Prompt intensive management of acute skin failure in the ICU on the lines of 100% burns is mandatory; clearly establishing the necessity of a dedicated intensive care unit comprising of well synchronized team of dermatologist, internist, pediatrician, critical care physician and skilled nursing staff. In this article, we review the literature and discuss the major causes of dermatological emergencies, some of which lead to acute skin failure and lay stress for their management in ICU like set up attached to dermatology department itself, i.e., dermatological intensive care unit (DICU), so that such emergencies may be dealt with more effectively and without wastage of time. DICU should be equipped to such an extent that it provides initial, immediate and necessary support and it need not be as advanced and sophisticated as cardiac, surgical or neonatal ICU. Key words Dermatological emergencies; acute skin failure; dermatological intensive care unit (DICU). Introduction medical/surgical emergencies, where cutaneous manifestations are the indicators of impending Dermatology is often thought of as a non-acute, or underlying severe systemic involvement. outpatient-centered specialty.

Clinicopathologic diagnosis of dermatosis integrates all findings eg. Sarcoidosis – skin, eye, lungs, etc 2. Clinicopathologic diagnosis reveals a reactive dermatosis – communication with internist or pediatrician will outline underlying medical conditions eg. Vasculitis 3. No direct relationship – eg. Scabies/Fibromyalgia Patients wishes to know from the internet whether they need x or y therapy for their presumptive diagnosis. Instead it is important to not let the patient “drive” for their own benefit. Step 1. – Clinicopathologic diagnosis- Caution influence of therapy on biopsy and clinical appearance Step 2. – Assess the extent (internal manifestations of disease) Step 3. – Assess for etiology Step 4. - Therapeutic ladder Lichen Planus Key Features • Idiopathic, inflammatory disease of the skin, hair, nails and mucous membranes, seen most commonly in middle-aged adults • Flat-topped violaceous papules and plaques favoring the wrists, forearms, genitalia, distal lower extremities and presacral
