The topic of the resource
Acute skin and soft tissue infections (SSTIs) are commonly encountered in clinical
practice, yet they can be challenging to diagnose and manage. SSTIs range from
mild cases of cellulitis to potentially life-threatening conditions, such as necrotizing
fasciitis and shock from staphylococcal scalded-skin syndrome. Infections of the
skin and soft tissues may be caused by bacteria, fungi, viruses, and parasites. They
may lead to significant complications, including osteomyelitis, bacteremia, endocarditis, and death

Description
An account of the resource
The diagnosis of a skin and soft tissue infection (SSTI) requires careful attention to a patient's history, physical examination, and diagnostic test results. We review for many bacterial, viral, fungal, and parasitic pathogens that cause SSTIs the clues for reaching a diagnosis, including reported past medical history, hobbies and behaviors, travel, insect bites, exposure to other people and to animals, environmental exposures to water, soil, or sand, as well as the anatomic site of skin lesions, their morphology on examination, and their evolution over time. Laboratory and radiographic tests are discussed that may be used to confirm a specific diagnosis.

Description
An account of the resource
BACKGROUND: The ability of health care professionals to provide patient care is potentially compromised when predicated on untested, although longstanding, perspectives. One such example is urinalysis testing, which has been currently simplified to use only urine testing strips for detection of microscopic hematuria. OBJECTIVE: To determine whether urine testing strips are sufficient for identification of clinically significant findings in urinalysis. METHODS: To determine the presence of microscopic hematuria, I examined a collection of urine specimens that had tested heme negative during the 3-month study period. RESULTS: Of the 342 patients from whom urine specimens were examined during this interval, 50 had microscopic hematuria, despite having tested negative for heme via urine testing strip. Also, 30% were not receiving any medication known to produce microscopic hematuria, and 18% had clinically significant pathology. CONCLUSIONS: Diagnosis of significant clinical pathologic manifestations would have been compromised had microscopic examination not been performed on the urine specimens from the cohort individuals. Examination of the novel approach of including microscopic examination of specimens in a specific clinical situation challenges the dominant paradigm of reliance on assaying using urine testing strips only, revealing that the current method is not only unreliable for determining microscopic hematuria but also is less than optimal in general clinical practice. The findings of this study provide evidence of the importance of microscopic evaluation as a routine component of urinalysis.
