pseudomembrane

It may precede the formation of a pseudomembrane, or be left when the membrane is removed.

The deposit sometimes forms a pseudomembrane sheet.

The control group didn't demonstrate any difference in pseudomembrane thickness or regularity in comparison to the experiment.

The ulcers may become covered by a yellowish white fibrin clot called a pseudomembrane.

Histology In the specimens taken immediately after treatment, the surface of corneal stroma was covered by a pseudomembrane typical after excimer laser.

Several days later, a sample of the pseudomembrane was PCR positive for Corynebacterium diphtheriae tox genes.

It is characterized by sore throat, low fever, and an adherent membrane (a pseudomembrane) on the tonsils, pharynx, and/or nasal cavity.

In 1858, Bouchut developed a new technique for non-surgical orotracheal intubation to bypass obstruction of the larynx resulting from a diphtheria-related pseudomembrane.

Respiratory diphtheria was suspected when, during a tracheostomy procedure, a pseudomembrane was seen throughout his upper airways consistent with respiratory diphtheria.

In 1826, Pierre Bretonneau gave the name to disease as diphtérite (from Greek diphthera "leather") describing the appearance of pseudomembrane in the throat.

Antibiotic treatment of CDIs can be difficult, due both to antibiotic resistance and physiological factors of the bacteria itself (spore formation, protective effects of the pseudomembrane).

Toxin damage to the colonic mucosa promotes accumulations of fibrin, mucin, and dead cells to form a layer of debris in the colon (pseudomembrane), causing an inflammatory response.

This is a common form of oral candidiasis in which there is a pseudomembrane of white slough which can be wiped away to reveal erythematous and sometimes bleeding mucosa beneath.

This can lead to pseudomembranous colitis, the generalized inflammation of the colon and the development of "pseudomembrane", a viscous collection of inflammatory cells, fibrin, and necrotic cells.

His method involved introducing a small straight metal tube into the larynx, securing it by means of a silk thread and leaving it there for a few days until the pseudomembrane and airway obstruction had resolved sufficiently.
