Aside from the injury, hismedical history was unremarkable. The patient was admitted for nine days and underwentdebridement and was discharged with an external fixator. However, during his admission, onhis 7m post-operative day, the wound was noted to have persistent purulent, bloodydischarge from drain site, which is highly suggestive of surgical site infection (SSI).Whole bloodDebridementSerumDischarge from drain site

A serological test methods was conducted to determine typhoid fever using serum ( Widal test).Determine the bellow outcome; a.i) Interpret the results and it's limitations. ii) suggest the quality control observed in performing the test.
The patient was an 80-year-old female who 10 days previously had had a cystocele repair performed. At the time of the hospital admission, a urine culture was obtained and revealed >100,000 CFU/ml of an Escherichia coli strain that was susceptible to all antimicrobial agents against which it was tested. Postoperatively, she began a 7-day course of oral cephalexin. She was discharged after an uneventful postoperative course of 3 days. Ten days postoperatively, she presented with a 3-day history of diarrhea. The patient noted multiple watery, loose stools without blood, crampy abdominal pain, and vomiting. She presented with a temperature of 38.2 degrees C, pulse rate of 90/min, respiration rate of 20/min, and blood pressure of 116/53mm Hg. Her white blood cell count was normal, but a large number (53%) of immature polymorphonuclear cells were seen. Physical examination, electrolytes, liver enzymes, and lipase were all within normal limits. Cultures for Salmonella, Shigella, Yersinia,…
