🗑
What are the two types of impetigo   nonbullous and bullous  
🗑
What is the treatment for impetigo   topical bactroban or oral penicillinase resistant antibiotics.  
🗑
What is classic signs and symptoms of impetigo   honey colored crusts which contain bacteria so wipe away and discard  
🗑
bacterial skin disease affects the desmosomes causing wide spread superficial blistering and loss of upper layers of epidermis   Staph scalded skin syndrome  
🗑
What is folliculitis   inflamation of the epithelium of the hair follicle, usually do to ostial occlusion  
🗑
What are the common pathogens of folliculitis   S. aureus, pseudomonas, candida, pityrosporum, tinea, demodex  
🗑
What are the types of folliculitis   superficial, deep, hot tub  
🗑
what is the treatment for folliculitis   topical anitbodies, oral abx, and none depending on how bad it is  
🗑
what are the three types of laymen's boils   furuncle, carbuncle, abcess  
🗑
deep seated inflammatory nodule about a follicle usually developed from folliculitis   Furuncle  
🗑
What is the pathogen and the treatment for a furuncle   Caused by S. Aureus and treated by warm compress or I&D  
🗑
Before perfroming an incision and drainange on a boil what state does it need to be in   it needs to be flucuant before draining  
🗑
Larger deeper more inflammatory nodule with deeper base generally involves multiple follicles   Carbuncle  
🗑
Pathogen that cuases carbuncles and the treatment   Caused by S. Aureus and treatment is I&D w/ systemic antibiotics  
🗑
Painful tender red fluctuant soft tissue mass not associated with a follicle caused by anerobic bacteria   abcess  
🗑
What is the treatment for an abcess   I&D with systemic antibiotics for severe cases  
🗑
this is an abcess that occurs in axilla and anogenital region associated with apocrine follicles and can become chronic and indolent (causing little or no pain) with sub q extensions with induration, sinus, and fistula formation   Hidradenitis Suppurativa  
🗑
When is hidradenitis suppurativa most common   occurs more in women in the 3rd decade of life  
🗑
What is the pathogenesis of hidradenitis suppurativa   kerain comedones-> Occlusion of the aporcrine duct -> superimposed inflammation and infection -> abscess formation -> chronic infection and spread -> induration, and sinus and fistula formation  
🗑
How many stages of hidradenitis suppurativa are there   3 stages  
🗑
what stage of hidradenitis suppurativa is marked by single or multiple abscesses without sinus tracts or cicatrization   Stage 1 hidradentitis suppurativa  
🗑
What stage of hidradenitis suppurativa is marked by recurrent abscesses with sinus tracts and cicatrization may be a single to multiple wide spread SEPERATED lesions   stage 2 hidradentitis suppurativa  
🗑
What stage of hidradenitis suppurativa is marked by diffuse interconnected tracts and abscesses across the entire area   stage 3 hidradentitis suppurativa  
🗑
what is the treatment for acute and chronic hidradentitis suppurativa   acute- antibiotics 2 weeks with intralesional steroids Chronic- long term antibiotics, high dose systemics steroids  
🗑
What type of surgery or treatment is suggested for each stage of hidradentitis suppurativa   Stage 1- I&D w/ antibiotics stage 2- exterirization and laying open of tracts and electrocoagulation, or exicision and primary closure such as pollock procedure stage 3- total wide excision and healing with secondary intention or flaps and grafts  
🗑
infection fo the epidermis that extends down to the dermis often from neglected impetigo   ecthyma  
🗑
what pathogens cause ecthyma and what is suggested treatment   ecthyma can be caused by group A strep and S. aureus or a combo. Treatment is with oral antibiotics  
🗑
Superficial infection of upper dermis and lymphatics w/ sharply demarcated raised boarders   erysipelas  
🗑
what pathogens can cause erysipelas and what is the treatment   Group A strep and sometime group C or G. treatment anti strep antibiotics  
🗑
how can you distinguish between erysipelas and cellulitis   erysipelas is more erythematous and has a raised boarder  
🗑
Infectious disease of the dermis and sub q tissues without raised boarders   cellulitis  
🗑
What pathogens can cause cellulitis   S. Aureus and Group A strep  
🗑
What is the treatment of cellulitis   local skin care, elevation, and systemic antibiotics  
🗑
common cause of facial cellulitis in kids   H. flu

🗑
what is the treatment for meningococcemia   get the IV ceftriaxone fast because it is life threatening  
🗑
aggressive cellulitis in superficial fascia and sub q tissues generally external lesions are small compared to the large lesions under the skin very life threatening   Necrotizing fasciitis  
🗑
What are the usual pathogens that cause necrotizing fasciitis   strep pyogenes, enterobacter, bacteroides, vibrio  
🗑
What is the treatment for necrotizing fasciitis   wide local debridment with broad spectrum antibiotics. Look for sub q gas in mri/ct to see how far out to debride
