INTRODUCTION: According to Ong andHho1 fournier’s gangrene was originally described by Baurienne in 1764, but named by jean Alfred Fournier(1832 - 1914) in 1883 when he described the occurrence of a condition characterised by sudden onset in previously healthy young men, rapid progression to gangrene and absence of a definite cause, as quoted by Stephens et al.2 and Laor et al.3 the Persian physician Avicenna (980 - 1037) had earlier described the same condition in his book the Canon of…

Gangrene is a severe and possibly life-threatening condition that arises when blood supply to a certain part of the body is interrupted for an extended time. When blood cannot move freely through the body, cells die and infection can develop. When this occurs, the result is localized death of soft tissue (necrosis). Interruption in blood supply may result from an injury or infection, or in people suffering from any long-lasting health problem affecting blood flow. Any condition that affects…

PREVELANCE: It is not clear when gas gangrene was officially discovered, although records from the Civil War indicate it was known at the time (Gillett, 1987, p. 280). Hospital gangrene was much more common than Gas Gangrene during the Civil War because it spread through direct contact (Gillett, 1987, p. 280). Gas gangrene was relatively uncommon during the Civil War, but became much more common in later wars such as World War I and World War II. In World War I, gas gangrene was the second most…

defined as a blood clot in a deep vein in your body, commonly in the lower extremities. If left untreated, it may progress along a continuum from deep vein thrombosis, to Phlegmasia Alba Dolens (PAD), into Phlegmasia Cerulean Dolens, finally ending in gangrene. Phelgmasia Alba Dolens is extensive thrombosis occluding major deep venous channels. Subsequent compromise of arterial flow causes edema, pain, and a white appearance (alba) of the extremity. What differentiates PCD from PAD is occlusion…

Peripheral Vascular Disease (PVD) is a condition of the blood vessels that supply the legs and feet. It leads to narrowing and hardening of the arteries. This causes decreased blood flow, which can injure nerves and other tissues. Diabetes is a leading cause of PVD, as well as other factors such as smoking, high cholesterol, hypertension, and diet and weight. Too much glucose in your blood from diabetes can cause nerve damage and poor blood flow, which can lead to serious foot problems. Nerve…

he is competent enough to refuse treatment, so he does not need an appointed guardian. His pancreatic cancer is in an advance stage and it is even said that he is not likely to live another four months. In addition, he refuses the treatment for gangrene saying, “No. Leave me alone and let me die in peace”. The surgeon clearly explains him the consequences of what would happen if he refuses treatment, but he still does so. Operating is the only way of stopping the infection from spreading, not…

infected (Grey, 2006). When an infection is suspected, the doctor should be notified and a wound swab and bloods may be required to be done by the nurse. Anti-bionics should also be recommended immediately at the presents of an arterial ulcer infection. Gangrene both wet and dry and its tendency to lead to amputation or septicaemia, is perhaps the most serious complications of arterial ulcers (Grey, 2006). In arterial ulcers necrotic tissue…

Experiments of the Holocaust Did you know that doctors were the backbone of the Nazi genocide? The doctors experimented on anyone deemed undesirable, such Jews, homosexuals and the disabled. They mercilessly experimented on thousands of people and few ever paid for their crimes. The experiments hurt and killed thousands of people and showed the most vile of science and medicine. The experiments were divided into three categories, military experiments, pharmaceutical and racially motivated. The…

More Americans have died during the Civil War than any other war. 620,000 soldiers died in the line of duty. Two-thirds of these didn’t die from wounds. They died from diseases such as typhoid and dysentery. Civil War medicine was not yet advanced enough to connect a lack of hygiene with an influx of disease. Lack of hygiene in hospitals and camps also contributed to the spread of disease. Placing a latrine downstream away from the clean water supply was sometimes also overlooked. Disease spread…
