Abstract

Trichiasis is a pathological disorder characterized by the abnormal growth of eyelashes towards the eyeball, resulting in irritation, pain, and potential harm to the eye. This research utilizes a method of sear Trichiasis is a pathological disorder characterized by the abnormal growth of eyelashes towards the eyeball, resulting in irritation, pain, and potential harm to the eye. The pathophysiology of trichiasis originates with alterations in the structure of the eyelashes and eyelids. Trichiasis is classified into six categories according to the source and location of abnormal eyelash development. The clinical presentation of trichiasis differs according on the extent of the condition. Trichiasis can be diagnosed by assessing the patient's medical history and doing a thorough physical examination. The history encompasses the patient's medical background, record of medication usage, past eye surgical procedures, and the patient's reported symptoms. The physical examination encompasses assessments of visual acuity, biomicroscopic inspection, evaluation of eyelid margins, and the administration of the Schirmer test. The treatment for trichiasis is determined by the extent of eyelash involvement, which includes factors such as the Soft Contact Lense Base Curve. Treatment options may include eyelash removal and surgical procedures, depending on the specific form of trichiasis that the patient is suffering. ching for articles on Google Scholar, PubMed, and NCBI. The search is limited to a specific year range determined by the researcher. The search is conducted using keywords such as trichiasis, etiology of trichiasis, pathophysiology of trichiasis, classification of trichiasis, clinical manifestations of trichiasis, diagnosis of trichiasis, and management of trichiasis. The study's findings revealed that the cause of trichiasis remained unknown, however it was hypothesized to be a result of infection.

Abstract

Sepsis is a clinical syndrome that occurs as a complication of severe infection and systemic inflammation and widespread tissue damage. Over the past three decades, the incidence of sepsis has continued to increase and has become the leading cause of death compared to other common diseases in Western countries. The incidence of sepsis reaches 750,000 every year with mortality reaching 50% in patients experiencing sepsis and septic shock. Pneumonia is the most common primary infection that occurs in sepsis patients. Pneumonia ranks third highest worldwide. Pneumonia sufferers with sepsis account for 40% of all pneumonia sufferers. Severe sepsis can be triggered by infections that occur during medical treatment or can also occur from community-acquired infections (Community Acquired Pneumonia). The aim of this literature review is to provide an overview of epidemiology, pathophysiology, clinical manifestations, and therapy that can be carried out in patients with pneumonia complicated by sepsis. The results of this literature study show that clinical manifestations in patients are influenced by the location of the infection, the type of organism, and the severity or lightness of the infection. Therapy that can be carried out in patients with pneumonia with sepsis is initial resuscitation which includes administering 0.9% NaCL for 6 hours and vasopressors to maintain the patient's hemodynamics, as well as administering empiric antibiotics followed by antibiotics according to the culture results and resistance in the patient.
