Pyemia

Pyemia is an infectious disease that is characterized by inflammation of tissues and organs due to the penetration of bacteria or viruses into the body.

Pyemia can be caused by various pathogens, including streptococci, staphylococci, E. coli and other bacteria. The infection can spread through the blood, lymph, and through the air or through contact with infected material.

Symptoms of pyaemia may include fever, chills, muscle and joint pain, headache, weakness and loss of appetite. In some cases, pyemia can lead to serious complications such as sepsis, meningitis and endocarditis.

Treatment for pyaemia usually includes antibiotics, which are selected depending on the causative agent of the infection. Hospitalization and additional tests may also be required to determine an accurate diagnosis and select the most effective treatment.

Prevention of pyaemia includes maintaining hygiene, avoiding contact with sick people, proper nutrition and a healthy lifestyle. It is also important to undergo regular medical examinations and consult a doctor if any symptoms of the disease appear.

Pyemia is an acute infectious disease accompanied by fever and inflammatory processes. The source of infection can be a sick person or a carrier of the pathogen. The incubation period is characterized by lightning-fast development.

Pyemia often occurs in severe form and is accompanied by the development of infectious complications leading to multiple organ failure. The combination of purulent-septic complications with cholangitis is observed in 20-25% of patients. In uncomplicated sepsis, the mortality rate is high - 30-60%.

Today, the diagnosis of acute infectious diseases is based on a complex of laboratory and instrumental research methods. For early diagnosis of sepsis, the most informative is a clinical blood test (leukocytosis with neutrophilia, shift of the formula to the left, acceleration of ESR). To exclude sore throat, diphtheria, retropharyngeal abscess and other diseases, it is necessary to additionally perform laryngoscopy.
