Healthcare-associated infections or nosocomial are considered to be one of the leading causes increased morbidity and mortality in patients. Hand hygiene is simplest most effective infection control measures prevent infections. Medical paramedical students foundation any healthcare system. So, induction further training during study period required build a robust system with responsible clinicians. To access knowledge, attitude, practices hand among medical at tertiary care hospital...
Background: Dengue is a mosquito borne viral disease in the world that has emerged as major public health problem with its diverse clinical manifestations. Assessment of both serological and hematological parameters are importance for diagnostic prognostic utility. Aims: To study various dengue patients correlation between them. Materials Methods: This was prospective studyof 2022 seropositive cases conducted Tertiary care hospital at Dehradun over period two years (September 2016-August...
Background: Achromobacter is a ubiquitous, non-fermenting, Gram-negative bacterium that lives in soil and aquatic environments. In recent years, many studies have shown its potential as opportunistic pathogen. It can colonize various items used hospital survive disinfectants. The infections get complicated due to vast spectrum of intrinsic extrinsic resistance antimicrobial agents spp. an emerging pathogen becoming reservoir for horizontal genetic transfer elements involved spreading...
Introduction: Autoimmunity is a condition characterised by specific humoral or cell-mediated immune response against constituents of the body’s own tissues. The diagnosis autoimmune diseases (AD) based on clinical presentation, laboratory diagnosis, and radiological diagnosis. Laboratory involves detection antibodies directed nuclear cytoplasmic components cell. gold standard test to detect antigens Immunofluorescence Assay (IFA), which detects presence Antinuclear Antibody (ANA) in serum....
Healthcare associated infections are the potential cause of morbidity and mortality amongst paediatric population. Widespread antimicrobial use population leads to resistance. Bloodstream leading death. The objective study was determine general trend susceptibility pattern in neonatal age group ICU setting. Retrospective analysis done all patients who were admitted including on ventilators, whose blood samples sent lab for culture sensitivity testing. sample profile from PICU NICU shows...
Myiasis is defined as the infestation of live vertebrates (humans and/or animals) with dipterous larvae. We present a case rare but not unknown type myiasis, presented by an 11 days old neonate. The larvae were characterised microscopically. Poor sanitation probably most important risk factor for human myiasis. Umblical myiasis though presentation due to improved health conditions and education still remains entity be looked in newborn belonging low socio economic status parents even orphanages.
Background: Neonatal sepsis is a clinical syndrome characterized by signs and symptoms of infection with or without accompanying bacteraemia in the first month life.Incidence differs among hospitals depending on variety factors.Blood culture considered gold standard for diagnosis, but does not give rapid result.Hence, there need to look surrogate marker diagnosing neonatal septicaemia.Material & Methods: 335 neonates were studied clinically suspected septicaemia over period one year.Blood...
In the present case of chronic cough, sputum sample was sent to laboratory rule out fungal etiology.An interesting structure observed on 10% KOH preparation and categorized as exoskeleton nymphal stage Pediculus capitis.Though an artifact, a literature search revealed no such observation so far from sputum.
Background & objectives: Enterococci are a part of normal intestinal flora humans and animals but increasingly being recognized as important human pathogens.Although they cause only few clinical infections in beings since the beginning antibiotic era, have posed major therapeutic challenges to humans.Material methods: Various samples coming Microbiology division central laboratory such blood, pus, urine etc. were included study.All essential biochemical reactions needed establish identity...
Salmonella typhi is a rare cause of bacterial meningitis in infants accounting for 1% or less cases. We report case nine-month-old baby due to typhi. A female was admitted our tertiary care hospital, with week’s history fever rigors and refusal take feeds.
Introduction: With more than one million cases of Hepatitis C viral infection reported annually, it has become a major global problem. Virus (HCV) is classified into 7 genotypes and 67 subtypes. Various show wide geographical distribution worldwide. Genotypes 1 3 are the most common from India. There minimal data available on frequency HCV in Uttarakhand. Aim: This three years retrospective study was undertaken to find out pattern among HCV- infected patients attending tertiary care hospital...
Kluyvera is a relatively new genus, belonging to family Enterobacteriaceae. This organism colonizes mainly respiratory and gastrointestinal tract. It has also been reported from various environmental sources. Due rise in immune-compromised states ease of identification using automated methods rare organisms are now being with their role as potential opportunistic pathogens. Meticulous detailed reporting pathogens like Klyuvera differentiate it other members Enterobacteriaceae can lead...
<i>Aim:</i> To study presentation of ocular cysticercosis and to evaluate its demographic data, diagnosis, treatment outcome in hill population Northern India. <i>Materials methods:</i> This is a retrospective carried out Dehradun, Uttarakhand tertiary eye care hospital over 4 years from 2016-2020. The involved 38 patients who presented with unilateral disease were diagnosed have or adenexal cysticercosis. We analysed retrospectively their geographical clinical presentation, serology,...
