ABSTRACT

COVID 19 indoor protection tracks the use of IOT to create an included machine that plays computerized applicable factors masks detection, contactless temperature sensing, test social distancing, and ship record to admin. The infrared sensor or thermal cameras are used to offer the contactless temperature, masks detection and test social distancing are preformed by laptop imaginative and prescient strategies on digital digicam equipped raspberry pi. These motion might be performed in an prepared surroundings which preserve the specified distance among people to keep away from infections. © 2022 IEEE.

ABSTRACT

Background: In December 2019, several cases of acute respiratory illness were detected in Wuhan city of China. This SARS-CoV-2 has been rapidly spreading worldwide ever since. SARS-CoV-2 has the potential to damage the vital organs such as lung, heart, liver, and kidney, and infection poses a considerable risk to patients by the high prevalence of pneumonia. Aims and Objectives: The objectives of the study are as follows: (1) To study clinical profile and biochemical markers in SARI patients. (2) To compare the clinical profile and biochemical markers between SARS-CoV-2 positive and negative patients and their outcomes. Materials and Methods: The present study is a hospital-based prospective cross-sectional study conducted on a total of 350 patients (150 SARI+200 COVID-19) in Bengaluru during the study period from June 2020 to May 2021. Results: Diabetes mellitus was present in 30% of SARI and 42% in COVID-19 patients (P=0.03). Leukocytosis (Total Leukocyte Count [TLC] >11000 cells/mm³) was more common among SARI patients than COVID-19 patients (49.3% vs. 24.3%). Leukopenia (TLC <4000 cells/mm³) was significantly more common in COVID-19 patients than in SARI patients (10.2% vs. 3.6%, P<0.001). Conclusion: COVID-19 infection is more common in patients with comorbidities such as diabetes mellitus and hypertension than SARI. Leukopenia was more common in COVID-19 patients whereas leukocytosis was more common in SARI patients.

ABSTRACT

INTRODUCTION: Although intensive care exists for adult and pediatric patients, the differences in diseases and therapies can be substantial. The severe acute respiratory syndrome corona virus (SARS-2-CoV) highlights the importance of multidisciplinary collaboration in critical care, especially as novel threats emerge. Multisystemic Inflammatory Syndrome in children (MIS-C) was diagnosed in this case involving a young adult patient. METHODS: An 18-year-old African American male presented with 3 days of pleuritic chest pain and increasing dyspnea. He also complained of fever, diarrhea, and vomiting. He was exposed to SARS-CoV-2 a month prior via sick family members. During the first day of admission he developed a new truncal rash. As his condition deteriorated, a new oxygen requirement and a CXR demonstrated findings consistent with pulmonary edema. He was emergently transferred to our tertiary facility with suspected MIS-C. Upon arrival he was intubated for mechanical ventilation and required escalating doses of vasopressors. Echocardiogram showed severe biventricular dysfunction. Labs were notable for elevated cardiac troponin and ferritin, acute kidney injury, and elevated lactate. A Right and left heart catheterization was performed, notable for elevated filling pressures, low cardiac output, but no evidence of coronary artery disease or aneurysm. Intra-aortic balloon pump was placed for hemodynamic support;VA ECMO was held on standby. Based on adult and pediatric specialty input, the patient received pulse dose steroids, anakinra (IL-1 inhibition), and IVIG. Only low-level virus was present, along with SARS-CoV-2 antibody, and acute infection was felt unlikely;remdesivir and convalescent plasma were not indicated. Over the next few days the patient's shock state resolved and he was weaned off vasopressor and IABP support. RESULTS: The adult critical care literature had no reports of MIS-C when our patient was admitted. Our case describes the course of a pediatric condition in a young adult admitted to the adult intensive care unit and demonstrates the importance of multidisciplinary collaboration. The current pathophysiology of MIS-C is unclear, but treatment requires the input of pediatric and adult specialists. Adult intensivists must consider MIS in the appropriate clinical scenario.
