INTRODUCTION Activated Protein C [APC] improves outcome in immunocompetent patients with severe sepsis particularly in those who are perceived to have high mortality risk. Before embarking on a trial of APC administration in immunocompromised septic patients, a preliminary study on plasma levels of protein C in this cohort is essential. OBJECTIVE To assess serum Protein C concentrations in im...

Background: Pregnancy is not a disease and so pregnancy related death almost always preventable. High rates of maternal deaths still exist in places, particularly underdeveloped communities. The objective was to identify the mortality ratio our tertiary care centre discuss about causes for deaths.Methods: present study prospective observational on conducted department Obstetrics Gynecology, VDG...

sepsis is one of the most important causes of mortality in trauma patients. sometimes its diagnosis could be difficult, especially at early stages. it is clear that early diagnosis of sepsis, especially with serum markers, may decrease the rate of death in trauma patients. investigation to find a rapid as well as accurate serum marker indicative of sepsis seems necessary. seum antithrombin iii ...

introduction: deep neck space infections (dnsi) are serious diseases that involve several spaces in the neck. the common primary sources of dnsi are dental infections, tonsillar and salivary gland infections, malignancies, and foreign bodies. with widespread use of antibiotics, the prevalence of dnsi has been reduced. common complications of dnsi include airway obstruction, jugular vein thrombo...
