Description: A 17-year-old boy, Jie, wore a new leather shoe and wore the skin, he did not take this small injury seriously. Unexpectedly, 3 days later the germs invaded from his wound, triggering multi-organ failure of the lungs, liver and kidneys, the germs eventually invaded his heart, and Jie went into shock and his life was hanging by a thread. Experts pointed out that sepsis can be caused by infection in any part of the body, do not ignore the small wounds on the skin, the conditions should be handled in the hospital, even if it is self-treatment, but also to carefully observe the changes in the wound and timely medical care, otherwise it may cause a major disaster. A small wound that was ignored nearly killed! ”What’s so unusual about new shoes grinding feet.” Like many people, Jie felt more wear for a while, the shoes will fit. But soon, the outside of his left foot and the heel was abraded skin. The company’s main business is to provide a wide range of products and services to its customers. At first he thought it was a cold, and Jie didn’t talk about the foot problem when he was treated at the school hospital. After being treated as a cold for a few days, Jie’s symptoms became more and more serious, and the place where the skin of his left foot was broken also had an abscess. He was sent to the hospital by his mother, who felt that he couldn’t hold on any longer, and by then he had a high fever, fatigue, chills, diarrhea and other symptoms, and his condition was still deteriorating rapidly. A number of laboratory tests showed that Staphylococcus aureus, known as a “superbug”, was found in Jie’s lungs, liver, kidneys and other important organs and blood. What’s more, this germ has “nested” in Jie’s heart and developed into “sepsis” with a high mortality rate. Eventually, doctors successfully performed heart surgery for Jie to knock out the germ’s “nest”. He has been transferred to a general ward, recalling the experience, still have palpitations. Second, a small wound can not be ignored! Even small wounds can not be ignored, Jie is a very good example, in fact, similar small injuries caused by “sepsis” and other infections are not uncommon. Because the wound is not properly treated, bacteria, fungi, parasites and other sources of infection are likely to take advantage of the situation. In daily life, people often use needles to pick pus, hematoma, and foreign bodies on the skin, not knowing that these actions hide a great risk. If the sterilization is not strict or the method is not correct, it may cause infection, vascular nerve damage, hemorrhage and other complications that can endanger life. Even foot odor, which people don’t take seriously, and eroded toes can induce infection and cause serious complications such as dermatitis and cellulitis. Sepsis is a syndrome of systemic inflammatory response caused by infection. Sepsis can be caused by infection at any site and is commonly seen clinically in pneumonia, peritonitis, cholangitis, urinary tract infections, cellulitis, meningitis, abscesses, etc. In addition to skin infections, sepsis often occurs in patients with serious diseases (e.g., severe burns, multiple injuries) and post-surgical procedures, as well as in patients with chronic diseases such as diabetes mellitus, chronic obstructive bronchus, leukemia, aplastic anemia, and urinary tract stone patients. ”Don’t think sepsis is far away; there are more than 18 million cases of severe sepsis worldwide each year, and that number is rising at a rate of 1.5-8.0 percent per year.” The most frightening aspect of sepsis is its viciousness and high mortality rate, with approximately 9% of patients with sepsis experiencing septic shock and multiorgan insufficiency; more than half of deaths in the ICU are caused by septic shock and multiorgan insufficiency; sepsis has become the leading cause of death in non-cardiac patients in the ICU. Third, wound inflammation and fever should be careful! It is understood that sepsis has two other “siblings” called bacteremia and sepsis, which can invade the body through broken skin, so be sure to treat your wounds properly and do not be careless. Some people don’t have wounds without treatment, while others will get sepsis if their wounds are not properly treated, which is related to each person’s constitution, for example, some people with immune disorders are prone to this disease. She stressed that any wound, or encounter skin infection, foreign body storage, erythema, blistering and other symptoms must be promptly sought and properly treated. It is reported that sepsis occurs most commonly with symptoms such as fever, tachycardia, shortness of breath and increased peripheral blood leukocytes. Once the wound inflammation is aggravated, there must be to the hospital when the above situation occurs. Fourth, light wounds do not handle not handle too much also not! Animals deal with wounds, usually lick a lick to solve the two major problems of cleanliness and disinfection, so what people should do to do it correctly? And what are the misconceptions about dealing with wounds? In the concept of some people, minor injuries do not fire. Like wearing shoes worn feet, playing basketball broken knees, cutting vegetables cut fingers such as small injuries, do not do treatment is the most appropriate treatment. Such an idea is really too unscientific. Microorganisms through the broken skin invade the human body easily induced a variety of diseases, especially the foot, hand wounds these most often in contact with the outside world is particularly prone to repeated infection, inducing sepsis. Some people think that cleaning the wound, and then rub some alcohol, iodophor disinfection, everything is fine. It is good to take the initiative to deal with the wound, but must be careful to observe whether the wound has healed, if the wound has not healed for a long time, but developed into an enlarged, swollen, painful, pus, you should go to the hospital to deal with. Some people are too serious to deal with wounds, after disinfection, but also buy ointment to apply, and even oral antibiotics to prevent infection. In the absence of a clear source of infection is bacteria, fungi or viruses, blind medication will delay treatment, counterproductive. The wound can heal naturally after the alcohol and iodine disinfection treatment, of course, the best, even if you need to go to the hospital to deal with, you can also go to the community hospital treatment.
