Intramuscular injections can rarely result in serious infectious complications such as abscesses which may progress to bacteraemia and generalized sepsis. These complications are rare, but can be life threatening, as they can lead to multi-organ failure associated with high morbidity and mortality.
In this report we present two patients who developed life-threatening infections after intramuscular injections. They were admitted to the hospital, had prompt surgical drainage, required ICU admission for severe sepsis, were treated with an early goal-directed therapy protocol and had a good outcome.
Sepsis is a rare, potentially life-threatening complication after intramuscular injections. Timely surgical drainage followed by appropriate ICU care and early goal directed therapy is crucial and may contribute to a good outcome in these rare cases.
肌肉注射极少会导致严重的感染并发症,如脓肿,脓肿可能会发展为菌血症和全身性败血症。这些并发症虽罕见,但可能危及生命,因为它们会导致与高发病率和死亡率相关的多器官功能衰竭。
在本报告中,我们介绍了两名在肌肉注射后发生危及生命感染的患者。他们入院后,迅速接受了手术引流,因严重败血症需要入住重症监护病房(ICU),接受了早期目标导向治疗方案,最终预后良好。
败血症是肌肉注射后一种罕见的、潜在的危及生命的并发症。及时进行手术引流,随后给予适当的重症监护和早期目标导向治疗至关重要,这可能有助于这些罕见病例获得良好的预后。
