ABSTRACT

Em 1992, a Organização Mundial da Saúde (OMS) propôs a seguinte definição: Sepse puerperal é uma infecção do trato genital ocorrendo, em qualquer momento, entre a ruptura das membranas ou o trabalho e o 42º dia após o parto, no qual estão presentes dois ou mais dos seguintes eventos: • Dor pélvica; • Febre (temperatura oral de 38,5 °C ou superior em qualquer ocasião); • Corrimento vaginal anormal, por exemplo, presença de pus; • Cheiro anormal/mau cheiro do corrimento vaginal; • Atraso na redução do tamanho do útero (<2 cm/dia durante os primeiros oito dias). 1. O conceito de infecção puerperal deve ser complementado com o de morbidade febril puerperal, pela dificuldade de caracterizar a infecção que ocorre logo após o parto. 2. Outras definições que se fazem necessárias são: • Bacteremia: presença de bactérias na corrente sanguínea; • Sepse: síndrome clínica caracterizada pela resposta da hospedeira a um processo infeccioso, acompanhada de uma resposta inflamatória sistêmica; • Sepse grave: sepse associada à disfunção de um ou mais órgãos (sistema nervoso central, renal, pulmonar, hepática, cardíaca, coagulopatia, acidose metabólica); • Choque séptico: sepse com hipotensão refratária à ressuscitação volêmica. 3. A OMS incluiu o termo "infecção puerperal", pois hoje estão morrendo mulheres com infecções de outros locais do corpo.

ABSTRACT

As infecções necrosantes pelviperineais (INPPs) são infecções graves, pouco comum, com mortalidade aproximada em torno de 30 por cento de flora bacteriana mista e predomínio do sexo masculino. Objetivo: avaliar o efeito da oxigenoterapia hiperbárica (OHB) no tratamento das INPPs. Método: estudo clínico prospectivo randomizado realizado no Serviço de Cirurgia de Emergência do Hospital das Clínicas da Faculdade de Medicina da Universidade de São Paulo / The pelviperineal necrotizing infecctions are serious infections, relatively rare, with mortality approached around 30 por cent of mixed bacterial flora and prevalence of masculine sex. Objective: to evaluate the effect of hyperbaric oxygn (HBO) therapy in the treatment of pelviperineal necrotizing infections. Method: prospective randomized clinical study accomplished in the Service of Emergency Surgery at the Clinical Hospital of the School of Medicine at the University of São Paulo in the period from July 2000 to November 2002...

ABSTRACT

Necrotizing fasciitis is a rare soft tissue infection and a life-threatening emergency, often fatal. Its incidence and management are described plentifully in the medical literature regarding the most common anatomical sites involved like the abdomen, lower and upper limbs, and perineum. However, available data and case reports of chest wall necrotizing fasciitis after thoracic procedures are scarce, mainly after major cardiac operations. We report and discuss a case of necrotizing fasciitis of the chest wall occurring in the immediate postoperative period of a cardiac procedure, and include a brief review of the concepts, pathophysiology, and treatment reported in the medical literature. We emphasize the need for early diagnosis and urgent and effective surgical debridement. Of importance is the fact that we have not found any references in the literature to cases similar or equal to the one we describe here, which occurred in the postoperative period of a cardiac procedure

ABSTRACT

La sinovitis simétrica seronegativa remitente con edema blando (Síndorme R S3 P E por las iniciales en ingles) constituye una forma diferente de artritis que se observa en personas de edad, generalmente mayores de 60 años y se caracteriza por tener pronóstico excelente a pesar de iniciarse en forma aguda e incapacitante en la mayoría de los casos. Se presenta el resumen de dos historias que reunen los criterios clínicos establecidos para esta entidad.
