PART II :ONE PAGE EXECUTIVE SUMMARY SHEET

1) Title of the Project:- COMPLICATIONS AND MANAGEMENT OF HAND INFECTIONS 2) Name of the PG guide:- DR. SHAILAJA P. JADHAV

3) Name of the PG Student:- DR. MISHRA AJIT MATAPRASAD

4) Name of the Department:- SURGERY

5) Name of the Institute:- B.J.MEDICAL , PUNE.

6) Aims & Objectives:-

Early diagnosis and management of various hand infections Early detection of complications of hand infections and

their management Preserve optimal function of hand following infection

7) Introduction:.

Few structures of the body are as complex or as unique as the human hand with the functions of sensation, mobility, and strength in one small area. The hand consists of multiple compartments and planes, the knowledge of which allows one to understand the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment of hand infections The hand’s compartmentalized anatomy is one of the reasons why the hand is more prone to infections.

Seemingly simple infections of the hand can more often result in debilitating conditions and significant morbidity. The hand being one of the more important functional organs required in day to day physical activities, it becomes important that such morbid conditions should be diagnosed and treated effectively at an early stage so that the function of the hand can be well preserved. If an infection is not appropriately diagnosed and treated, significant morbidity can result.

8) Material & Methods:-

Sample size- All cases admitted between period June 2011 – June 2014

Number of cases- 25

Type of study- Prospective

Duration of study:- 2 years

9) Risks Involved:- This is not an interventional study so complications related to procedure and anesthetic complications are the only risk involved in this study.

3. INTRODUCTION (Background information)

Few structures of the body are as complex or as unique as the human hand with the functions of sensation, mobility, and strength in one

small area. The hand consists of multiple compartments and planes, the knowledge of which allows one to understand the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment of hand infections The hand’s compartmentalized anatomy is one of the reasons why the hand is more prone to infections.

Seemingly simple infections of the hand can more often result in debilitating conditions and significant morbidity. The hand being one of the more important functional organs required in day to day physical activities, it becomes important that such morbid conditions should be diagnosed and treated effectively at an early stage so that the function of the hand can be well preserved. If an infection is not appropriately diagnosed and treated, significant morbidity can result.A thorough understanding of hand and finger anatomy and knowledge of the bacteria commonly involved in infections of the upper extremity are required of the surgeon who will be caring for these patients. An understanding of the fascial boundaries of the hand will help to identify the extent of the infection and plan surgical incisions.

Host factors, location, and circumstances of the infection are important guides to initial treatment strategies. Many hand infections improve with early splinting, elevation, appropriate antibiotics and, if an abscess is present, incision and drainage..

4. MATERIAL & METHODS

Sample size- All cases admitted between period June 2011 – June 2013

Number of cases - 25

Type of study- Prospective

Duration of study:- 2 years 5. DETAILED RESEARCH PLAN

(Groups / Procedures etc) Patients will be selected according to the selection criterion i.e- All patients belonging to all age groups having hand infections will be

included in the study.

Selected patients will be evaluated by- Proper history- clinical examination- Investigations

Plan of the study-

All patients coming to the casualty and outdoor patient department with non specific complaints associated with hand infections such as pain, swelling, redness, pus and discharge will be evaluated. One important aspect of this study will be follow up of these patients.

Various conditions that will be considered in this study are:

1) Paronychia2) Herpetic whitlow3) Felon4) Tenosynovitis5) Secondary infections of post traumatic crush injuries.6) Cellulitis7) Infections of the joint spaces, web spaces and palmar spaces

The aim of this study will be early diagnosis and treatment of hand infections. This is important as more often than not hand infections go undiagnosed and are associated with significant morbidity and

devastating complications such as stiffness, contractures and amputation.

One important life threatening condition is necrotizing fasciitis which because of its spreading nature requires early diagnosis and early surgical management.

A detailed understanding of the anatomy of the hand is essential for the appropriate surgical management of hand infections. This includes the following:

1) bones and joints2) skin3) palmar spaces4) muscles and tendons

One of the most common causes of hand infections is penetrating trauma which introduces various organisms most common ones being staphylococci and streptococci. In immunocompromised conditions and diabetes mellitus gram negative and anaerobic organisms have also been implicated.

Patients will be evaluated under the following criteria:1) history 2) clinical findings- local and systemic findings3) laboratory investigations – blood culture, blood sugar levels,

blood counts4) gram staining, anaerobic cultures to identify the causative

organisms.5) Radiological investigations such as x-rays to rule out

involvement of bones and joints and to exclude fractures and foreign body.

Management: Goal of treatment of hand infections is rapid and full recovery of function as well as prevention of complicationsManagement includes:

1) Conservative management2) Active surgical mangement

Conservative line of management is usually adopted in the early stages of the disease when the infection has been diagnosed 24-48 hours after the onset.It includes:1) Splinting2) Elevation of limb3) Moist heat to the affected part4) Systemic antibiotics – oral or intravenous

Following conservative treatment, follow up of the patient will be done. Decrease in presenting symptoms will be indicative of effectiveness of conservative treatment while increase in symptoms and local skin changes(increased swelling, redness, tenderness, pus discharge)will be indicative of failure of conservative treatment thus compelling the need for active surgical treatment.

Surgical treatment is considered when conservative means fail to control the infection.1) Open drainage2) Debridement

Thus in conclusion, my study aims at treating hand infections at an early stage so that the optimal function of the hand can be preserved. Complications include septicemia, gangrene, contractures, amputation of the involved limb.
