DIAGNOSTIC TEST
ULTRASOUND
Patients with pelvic inflammatory disease typically present with pelvic pain, a purulent vaginal discharge, and pelvic tenderness, with the onset of symptoms often after menstruation. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: Ultrasound may reveal a dilated tube, better visualized if there is purulent cul-de-sac fluid present .Typically; motion of the vaginal transducer reveals an immobile mass that is exquisitely tender.
Name: SAN BUENAVENTURA GERLIE Date: June 20, 2011 Pertinent data: (+) fever, Post D/C one month ago I. UTERUS: 4.7 X 4.8 X 4.1 cm Retroverted ABNORMALITIES NOTED: Transvaginal scan shows normal sized anteverted uterus with no myometrial lesion. II. ENDOMETRIUM 0.8 cm hypoechoic/ isoechoic/ hyperechoic/ triple line ABNORMALITIES NOTED: Slightly thickened endometrium with dilated parametrial vessels. III. Adnenae
RO: 3.5 X 2.9 X 2.9 cm Lateral/ Posterior-Lateral/Posterior Dominant follicle: The right ovary is converted into a cystic structure, unilocular, thin walled (0-2), anechoic, suggestive of a follicular cyst. LO: 2.0 X 1.6 X 1.2 CM Lateral/ Posterior-lateral/ posterior The left ovary is normal in sized and echoetexture. Lateral to left ovary is a tubulocystic structure, thick walled, anechoic, with incomplete septations measuring 1.7 x 0.6 x 0.7 cm suggestive of metritis with hydrosalpinx to consider PID. IV. CERVIX: 2.0 X 2.3 X 2.9 No free fluid in cul de sac
IMPRESSION: Normal sized retroverted uterus slightly thickened endometrium follicular cyst, right ovary normal left ovary metritis with hydrosalpinx to consider PID.
CLINICAL DISCUSSION
PELVIC INFLAMMATORY DISEASE It is an inflammatory condition of pelvic cavity that may begin with cervicitis, and may involve the uterus (endometritis), fallopian tube (salpingitis), ovaries (oophoritis), pelvic peritoneum, or pelvic vascular system. Infection may be acute, subacute, recurrent, or chronic, and localized or widespread.
CAUSES: 1. Microorganisms Neisseria gonorrhoeae Clamydia trachomatis Clostridium perfringes Actinomyces Mycoplasma Streptococci Staphylococci Coliform bactreria 2. Breakage in sterility in some medical procedures: IUD insertion, Cesarean section, Dilatation and curettage and suctioning for the purpose of abortion, or removal of polyps or unexpelled placental fragments. RISK FACTORS:
y y y y
Are under 25 years of age and are having sex Have had STI. Have more than 1 sex partner Douche. Douching can push bacteria into the pelvic organs and cause infection. It can also hide the signs of an infection. Have an intrauterine device (IUD)
SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS: 1. Lower abdominal pain -description: dull 2. Purulent vaginal discharge 3. Fever 4. Painful urination 5. Painful sex 6. Irregular menstruation 7. Intense tenderness may be noted on palpation of the uterus or movement of cervix (cervical movement tenderness)
PATHOPHYSIOLOGY
Entry of microorganism to the vaginal orifice may be due to unsafe sexual intercourse, unsterile medical procedures.
Vasoconstriction due to effect of thromboxane
Inflammatory process in the lower part of the pelvis in response to burrowing of microorganism.
Increased permeability Extravasations Leukocyte invasion (phagocytosis) Accumulated fluid (exudates and abscess formation) Pressure on the nerve (Pain)
Ascending infection will cause inflammation of upper pelvic organ, uterus (endometritis), fallopian tube (salpingitis) and ovary reach the liver Further infection can (oophoritis). and diaphragm which will cause hepatic infection and diaphragmatic infection.
Death
DISCHARGE PLAN:
HEALTH TEACHING: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Instruct the patient to immediately report fever. Teach the patient the proper way of washing the perineal area. Inform about the medications. Encourage the patient to comply with checkups. Encourage the patient to eat nutritious foods.
