Doctor, I’m Sick Again and Again
Authors: Tang Patrick , Bociek R. Gregory
Published: November 2017

These case studies illustrate infections encountered in hospitals among patients with compromised immune systems. As a result of immunocompromise, the patients are vulnerable to common and uncommon infections. These cases are carefully chosen to reflect the most frequently encountered infections in the patient population, with an emphasis on illustrations and lucid presentations to explain state-of-the-art approaches in diagnosis and treatment. Common and uncommon presentations of infections are presented while the rare ones are not emphasized. The cases are written and edited by clinicians and experts in the field. Each of these cases highlights the immune dysfunction that uniquely predisposed the patient to the specific infection, and the cases deal with infections in the cancer patient, infections in the solid organ transplant recipient, infections in the stem cell recipient, infections in patients receiving immunosuppressive drugs, and infections in patients with immunocompromise that is caused by miscellaneous conditions.

Electroencephalography and Local Field Potentials in Animals
Authors: Reed Sean , Jego Sonia , Adamantidis Antoine
Published: November 2017

This chapter discusses the history, practice, and application of electroencephalography (EEG) and local field potential (LFP) recordings, with a particular focus on animal models. EEG measures the fluctuations of electrical activity resulting from ionic currents in the brain. These measurements are often taken from electrodes placed on the surface of the scalp, or in animal models, directly on the skull. LFP recordings are more invasive, measuring electrical current from all nearby dendritic synaptic activity within a volume of tissue. These two techniques are useful in determining how neural activity can synchronize during different behavioral or motivational states.
Voltage-Sensitive Dye Imaging
Authors: Frost William , Wu Jian-young
Published: November 2017

Voltage sensitive dye imaging (VSD) can be used to record neural activity in hundreds of locations in preparations ranging from mammalian cortex to invertebrate ganglia. Because fast VSDs respond to membrane potential changes with microsecond temporal resolution, these are better suited than calcium indicators for recording rapid neural signals. Here we describe methods for using a 464- element photodiode array and fast VSDs to record signals ranging from large scale network activity in brain slices and in vivo mammalian preparations, to action potentials in over 100 individual neurons in invertebrate ganglia.

Sepsis
Authors: Balhara Kamna S. , Khishfe Basem F. , Bayram Jamil D.
Published: November 2017

Sepsis is a clinical syndrome characterized by systemic inflammation in the presence of infection. The source of infection may be occult. One must be aware of the epidemiology, presenting features and complications, diagnostic considerations and tests, and the organisms involved. Bacteria (gram positive and negative) are most commonly associated with sepsis, although fungi, viruses, and parasites can cause sepsis. Infections in the lungs, urinary tract, abdomen, skin, brain, and other areas can cause bacteremia and lead to sepsis. Treatment includes airway, breathing, and circulation (ABCs) management; aggressive fluid resuscitation; early administration of broad-spectrum antibiotics; and early goal-directed therapy and severe sepsis resuscitation bundle. Diagnosis can be challenging in pediatric and geriatric populations.
Encephalitis
Authors: Martinez Tyler
Published: November 2017

Encephalitis is an inflammation of the brain parenchyma, typically due to a viral infection. Pure encephalitis will lack the signs and symptoms of meningeal irritation (eg, stiff neck and photophobia). New-onset seizures, cognitive deficits, new psychiatric symptoms, lethargy/coma, cranial nerve abnormalities, or movement disorders should alert the clinician to possible encephalitis. It is important to question the patient about foreign travel, immunocompromised state, and potential exposures. Empiric treatment for presumed viral encephalitis is with the antiviral acyclovir. Empiric broad-spectrum antibiotics are also typically given to cover for possible bacterial meningitis. If there are signs of elevated intracranial pressure (ICP), neurosurgical consultation should be obtained for possible decompressive craniotomy. Standard therapy for ICP (ie, hyperventilation, steroids, mannitol, hypertonic saline, and elevation of the head of the bed) should also be considered. The most concerning complication of encephalitis is the development of life-threatening cerebral edema with resultant brainstem compression and herniation.
Deep Space Infections of the Head and Neck
Authors: Jacquet Gabrielle
Published: November 2017

Deep space infections occur around the airway, including the epiglottis, the parotid gland, and the retropharyngeal spaces (retropharyngeal abscesses [RPA]) and parapharyngeal spaces. These infections can extend into the airway and mediastinum, and their extent can be difficult to appreciate without imaging. In adults, deep space infections most commonly result from trauma, irradiation, surgical procedures, and human or animal bites. In children, they more commonly result from cervical adenitis and thyroiditis caused by bacteria or viruses. RPA commonly presents with sore throat, fever, torticollis, dysphagia, neck pain, muffled “hot potato” voice, cervical lymphadenopathy, and respiratory distress. Epiglottitis symptoms classically include the triad of drooling, dysphagia, and distress but may include inspiratory stridor. Parotitis is recognized by a sudden firm, erythematous swelling of the preauricular and postauricular areas. Immediate airway management and otolaryngology consultation are required. Most patients will require transoral or transcervical incision and drainage in addition to IV fluid resuscitation and close observation.
Infective Endocarditis
Authors: Kocher Ajar
Published: November 2017

Infectious endocarditis (IE) is an infection of the heart’s innermost layer, the endothelium. Most cases require a predisposing injury to the endocardium to serve as a nidus for thrombus development, which in turn acts as nidus for bloodstream microorganisms. These intravascular microorganisms can result from dental and other invasive procedures, infected vascular catheters, and skin lesions. However, most episodes of IE result from transient bacteremia during menial tasks, such as chewing and brushing one’s teeth. Blood cultures and echocardiograms are critical for IE diagnosis. Transesophageal echocardiogram (TEE) is the preferred diagnostic tool for prosthetic valve endocarditis and cardiovascular implantable electronic device (CIED) infections. IE complicated by heart failure and cerebral emboli has high rates of morbidity and mortality. Large vegetation, mobile lesions, mitral valve vegetation, and infection by S. aureus and fungi are more likely to result in embolic phenomena. Indications for surgery include severe heart failure, persistent infection, fungal infection, heart block, and abscess formation.
Myocarditis and Pericarditis
Authors: Alexander Kevin
Published: November 2017

Infectious myocarditis is a primary, inflammatory cardiomyopathy that can lead to cardiomyocyte toxicity via direct myocyte invasion, toxin production, and/or stimulation of a chronic inflammatory response through antigenic mimicry. Its incidence is difficult to determine due to significant disease heterogeneity and the lack of a noninvasive gold standard for diagnosis. Often, the causative pathogen is not identified; in cases where it is, appropriate anti-infective agents may be used. Treatment is primarily supportive. Acute infectious pericarditis involves inflammation of the parietal and visceral layers of the pericardial sac that surround the heart. Because infectious pericarditis usually has a viral etiology, antibiotics are only started if blood or pericardial effusion cultures demonstrate a bacterial or fungal cause. Purulent pericarditis and cardiac tamponade should be treated with drainage via either pericardiocentesis or a pericardiotomy. Pericardial resection is the only treatment for constrictive pericarditis.
