A 12-year-old patient, Aashiq, who entered our hospital in a disoriented state, showing a complex medical condition marked by acute complaints of insidious fever, abdominal pain, altered level of consciousness, inability to speak properly, abnormal body movements, and the alarming situation of multiple organ failure
The medical team at ITM Hospital quickly distinguished that the young patient was wrestling with a formidable adversary – Multiorgan Dysfunction Syndrome (MODS) along with Encephalitis. MODS is the inflammation from a severe infection or injury that causes dysfunction in two or more organ systems. Encephalitis is a brain condition that causes inflammation in various parts of the brain The inflammation is typically caused by viral or bacterial infections, although fungi and other microorganisms can also be culprits. Bacterial meningitis, in particular, can be severe and challenging for recovery.
The condition of the little one demanded a multidisciplinary approach and a comprehensive plan of action for a quick recovery of the patient. Inotropes were judiciously administered to regulate blood pressure and optimize the force of heart contractions. This complicated balance aimed not only to sustain vital functions but also to create a facilitative environment for the healing process to commence.
