pilot study Also found in : Dictionary Thesaurus Legal Encyclopedia Wikipedia study stud e a careful examination of a phenomenon ; see also design cohort study prospective study cross - sectional one employing single point of data collection for each participant or system being studied . It is used for examining phenomena expected to remain static through the period interest . It contrasts with longitudinal s . electrophysiological s ' s ( EPS ) studies from within the heart its electrical activation and response to electrical stimuli and certain drugs . In general they include intravenous and / or intra - arterial placement one or more electrode catheters at sites in atria , ventricles , coronary sinus , sometimes pulmonary artery aorta . They record activity stimulate heart at various rates cadences are aids in evaluation electrophysiologic properties such as automaticity , conduction , refractoriness .

pivot joint Also found in : Dictionary Thesaurus Legal Financial Encyclopedia Wikipedia joint joint the site of the junction or union of two or more bones body ; its primary function is to provide motion and flexibility to frame body . Some are immovable , such as sutures where segments bone are fused together in skull . Others , such as those between vertebrae , gliding joints and have limited motion . However , most joints allow considerable motion . The most common type synovial joints which have a complex internal structure , composed not only ends bones but also ligaments cartilage articular capsule synovial membrane sometimes bursae acromioclavicular point at which clavicle joins with acromion . ankle between foot leg ; see ankle arthrodial gliding joint ball - and - socket a synovial joint in rounded spheroidal surface one bone ( the “ ball ” ) moves within cup - shaped depression ( the “ socket ” ) on another bone , allowing greater freedom movement than any other type joint . See illustration . Called also polyaxial spheroidal joint bicondylar condylar joint with meniscus articular surfaces , temporomandibular joint cartilaginous synarthrosis united by cartilage , providing slight flexible movement ; two types synchondrosis symphysis composite compound synovial joint more than involved . condylar condyloid one an ovoid head moves an elliptical cavity another , permitting all movements except axial rotation ; this is found at wrist , connecting radius carpal bones , base index finger .

Benign hypertrophy can be treated by either closed or open approach removal only hyperplastic tissue enucleation ) . closed method treatment transurethral resection of the prostate ( TURP ) ; it preferred when there relatively minor gland , patient elderly poor surgical risk . A resectoscope inserted through penis along manner similar for cystoscopy . When site hyperplasia reached an electrical cutting loop inserted , excess tissue resected , bleeders are cauterized . Other techniques can used with transurethral approach cold punch technique , using hollow sliding knife scoop out tissue , cryosurgery , frozen thereby destroyed . A TURP removes only enlarged tissue ; normal outer capsule left intact . procedure less traumatic , requires less time , requires shorter postoperative recovery period than any open methods surgery .

Almost all postprostatectomy patients experience backflow semen into retrograde ejaculation during sexual intercourse . semen thus eliminated urine rather than being expelled ejaculation . Studies show about 6 per cent who have had transurethal resection experience impotence , though there no known physiologic cause failure have erection postoperatively . incidence impotence slightly higher who had suprapubic retropubic approaches prostate . Other consequences surgery include urinary incontinence , affects fewer 1 per cent , urethral scarring strictures , affect from 3 15 cent , regrowth tissue , occurs about 3 cent prostatectomy patients . urethral strictures usually relieved periodic passage . general , more 90 postprostatectomy patients whose condition not malignant successful uncomplicated surgery .

protime protime Prothrombin time see there . McGraw - Hill Concise Dictionary of Modern Medicine . © 2002 by The McGraw - Hill Companies , Inc . ( prō ′ tīm ′ ) A common colloquialism for prothrombin time . Medical Dictionary , © 2009 Farlex and Partners Prothrombin Time and International Normalized Ratio Synonym / acronym : Protime , PT . Common use To assess and monitor coagulation status related to therapeutic interventions and disorders such as vitamin K deficiency . Specimen Plasma ( 1 mL ) collected in a completely filled blue - top ( sodium citrate ) tube . If the patient ’ s hematocrit exceeds 55 % , the volume of citrate in collection tube must be adjusted . Normal findings ( Method : Clot detection ) 10 to 13 sec . International normalized ratio ( INR ) = Less than 2 for patients not receiving anticoagulation therapy , 2 3 patients receiving treatment venous thrombosis , pulmonary embolism , valvular heart disease . INR = 2.5 3.5 with mechanical heart valves and / or treatment recurrent systemic embolism . Description Prothrombin time ( PT ) is a coagulation test performed measure time it takes firm fibrin clot form after tissue thromboplastin ( factor III ) calcium are added sample of plasma . Coagulation factors patient ’ s sample , including prothrombin ( factor II ) react with reagents complete process proportion amount available factors . The PT is used evaluate tissue factor pathway , formerly called extrinsic pathway sequence oral warfarin ( Coumadin ) anticoagulants . Prothrombin vitamin K – dependent protein produced by liver ; measurement reported as seconds or percentage normal activity . The goal long - term anticoagulation therapy achieve balance between vivo thrombus formation hemorrhage . It delicate clinical balance , because differences instruments reagents , there wide variation PT results among laboratories . Worldwide concern need provide more consistency monitoring anticoagulant therapy led development an international committee . In early 1980s , manufacturers instruments reagents began comparing their measurement systems single reference material provided by World Health Organization ( WHO ) . international effort successfully developed an algorithm provide comparable values regardless differences laboratory methodology . Reagent instrument manufacturers compare their results WHO reference derive factor called sensitivity index ( ISI ) that applied mathematical formula standardize results . Laboratories convert values into normalized ratio ( INR ) using following formula : INR ( patient result / normal patient average ) ( ISI ) evaluation can now be based on using standardized thromboplastin reagent assist making decisions regarding oral therapy . metabolism many commonly prescribed medications driven cytochrome P450 ( CYP450 ) family enzymes . Genetic variants can alter enzymatic activity that spectrum effects ranging from total absence drug metabolism ultrafast metabolism . Impaired drug prevent intended therapeutic effect or even lead serious adverse reactions . Poor metabolizers ( PM ) are at increased risk drug - induced side effects due accumulation blood , whereas ultra - rapid metabolizers ( UM ) require higher - than - normal dosage because metabolized over shorter duration than intended . In case prodrugs require activation before metabolism , opposite occurs : PM may higher dose activated becoming available more slowly intended , UM may less activated becoming sooner intended . Other genetic phenotypes used report CYP450 intermediate metabolizer ( IM ) extensive metabolizer ( EM ) . Genetic testing performed on blood samples submitted laboratory . test method commonly polymerase chain reaction . Counseling informed written consent generally required genetic testing . CYP2C9 gene CYP450 family metabolizes prodrugs like anticoagulant warfarin . Three major gene mutations associated warfarin response estimated account up 45 % variations Caucasians up 30 % variations African Americans . genes distributed differently predictable frequency among various ethnic groups ; incidence mutation CYP2C9 * 2 allele Caucasians 8 % 19 % , Asians less 0 % 4 % , African Americans 0 % 12 % ; incidence mutation CYP2C9 * 3 allele 5 % 16 % , Asians 1 % 8 % , Americans 6 % ; VKORC1 ( as predicted 1639G > A mutation ) 37 % Caucasians , 89 % Asians , 14 % Americans . testing should conjunction other factors , including all prescription over - the - counter medications being used ; mode administration ; use tobacco products , foods , supplements ; age , weight , environment , activity level , diseases which patient dealing . Some inferences deficiency made comparison obtained from partial ( aPTT ) tests . normal aPTT prolonged occur only VII deficiency . prolonged aPTT could indicate deficiency factors XII , XI , IX , VIII well VIII : C ( von Willebrand factor ) . Factor deficiencies also identified correction substitution studies serum . These studies easy perform accomplished adding plasma healthy sample suspected factor - deficient patient . When repeated corrected , within range , it assumed due ( see monograph titled “ Coagulation Factors ” ) . If result remains uncorrected , most likely circulating anticoagulant .

Mentioned in standard References in periodicals archive The Prudent Layperson Standard was specifically drafted to allow patients to get the services they need , when they need them . McCaskills letter outlines Anthems potential violation of federal law by disapproving emergency room claims that may be required to be allowed under the Prudent Layperson Standard , a law that requires emergency room coverage where absence of immediate medical attention would place the health of the individual in serious jeopardy . United States : McCaskill Calls for Review of Anthems Emergency Room Policies Reforms include : SB 50 , that sets up a three - step process for denied care ; HB 185 , that sets up a for judging emergency medical treatment ; and HB 186 , that requires companies to have a process for referral to specialized physicians . Dying for Coverage Prudent layperson standard for emergencies : Thirty - one state laws specify automatic coverage for emergency medical conditions " of sufficient severity , including severe pain , that a prudent layperson , who possesses an average knowledge of health and medicine , could reasonably expect the absence of medical attention to result in placing the person ' s health in jeopardy . Managed care ; where do we go from here ? The Act calls for a for defining medical emergencies , the prohibition of prior authorization requirements , a process to assure medically necessary care even after the patient has been stabilized , and methods for resolving disputes between EDs and health plans ( American College of Emergency Physicians , " Questions and Answers : Access to Emergency Medical Services Act " undated ) . Third , while the is gaining in popularity , we do not know whether it might discriminate against immigrants or persons with low educational achievement , who perhaps have different ideas of emergency situations than those belonging to the average American . Commentary : economic transfers , the changing face of a familiar problem Many of the legislative initiatives address similar issues such as : ( a ) emergency services including the application of a in determining payment coverage for emergency services rendered and bans on pre - authorization ; ( b ) provisions that affect coverage of experimental therapies ; ( c ) anti - gag rules ; and ( d ) information disclosure on the part of health plans to current and potential enrollees including information on financial incentives for providers , prior authorization requirements , and quality indicators .

Description Acute pyelonephritis is most common in adult females but can affect people either sex and any age . Its onset usually sudden , with symptoms that often are mistaken as results straining lower back . often complicated by systemic infection . Left untreated or unresolved , it can progress to a chronic condition lasts for months or years , leading to scarring possible loss kidney function . Causes and symptoms The most common cause backward flow ( reflux ) infected urine from bladder upper urinary tract . Bacterial infections also may be carried one both kidneys through bloodstream lymph glands infection began in bladder . Kidney sometimes urine becomes stagnant due obstruction free flow . A blockage abnormality system , such as those caused by stones , tumors , congenital deformities , loss function nerve disease , increases a person ' s risk pyelonephritis . Other risk factors include diabetes mellitus , pregnancy , chronic infections , history analgesic abuse , paralysis spinal cord injury tumors . Catheters , tubes , surgical procedures may also trigger infection . The bacteria likely cause are those normally occur feces . Escherichia coli causes about 85 % acute infections patients with no obstruction history surgical procedures . Klebsiella , Enterobacter , Proteus Pseudomonas other causes Once these organisms enter tract , they cling tissues line tract multiply them . Symptoms acute typically include fever chills , burning frequent urination , aching pain on one both sides lower back abdomen , cloudy bloody urine , fatigue patient have nausea , vomiting , diarrhea flank pain be extreme . symptoms weakness , appetite , hypertension , anemia , protein blood urine . Diagnosis diagnosis based on patient ' s history , physical examination laboratory imaging tests . During physical examination , doctor will touch ( palpate ) patient ' s abdomen carefully order rule out appendicitis other severe abdominal pain . Laboratory tests In addition collecting samples for urinalysis culture sensitivity tests , doctor will take sample blood cell count . If patient has pyelonephritis , tests show presence white cells , bacteria urine . Bacterial counts 100,000 organisms higher per milliliter point presence antibodycoated ( ACB ) sample distinguishes infection , because trigger an antibody response coats bacteria . cell count indicates sharp increase number white cells . Imaging studies order ultrasound imaging area if he she suspects there blocking flow X rays demonstrate scarring kidneys ureters resulting long - standing Treatment Treatment require hospitalization if severely ill has complications . Therapy involves two - three - week course antibiotics first few days treatment given intravenously . choice antibiotic based laboratory sensitivity studies . antibiotics used ciprofloxacin ( Cipro ) , ampicillin ( Omnipen ) , trimethoprim - sulfamethoxazole ( Bactrim , Septra ) . Several advances antibiotic therapy have been made recent years . In 2003 , U.S . Food Drug Administration ( FDA ) approved Cipro extended release tablets ( Cipro XR ) could taken once daily uncomplicated pyelonephritis . A study Europe showed shorter course than normally used United States could eradicate disease . primary objective antimicrobial therapy permanent eradication tract . early disappear within 48 72 hours start antibacterial treatment . Repeat cultures done evaluate effectiveness medication . Chronic require high doses long six months clear Other medications given control fever nausea , pain .

In the embryo develops as a direct extension of brain , and thus is a very delicate organ . To protect bones skull are shaped so that an orbital cavity protects dorsal aspect each eyeball . In addition , conjunctival sac covers front eyeball and lines upper lower eyelids . Tears from lacrimal duct constantly wash to remove foreign objects , lids eyelashes help protect front eye . Structure The eyeball has three coats . The cornea is clear transparent layer on eyeball ; it continuation sclera ( the white eye ) , tough outer coat that helps delicate mechanism eye . choroid middle layer contains blood vessels . third layer , retina contains rods cones , which are specialized cells sensitive to light . Behind cornea in lens iris , circular pigmented band around pupil . iris works much like diaphragm in camera , widening or narrowing pupil adjust different light conditions . Function ( See also vision . ) refraction or bending light rays so they focus on retina can thus be transmitted optic nerve accomplished by three structures : aqueous humor , watery substance between lens ; lens , crystalline structure just behind iris ; vitreous humor , jelly - like substance filling space between lens retina . Unlike camera , focuses by process called accommodation . This means when sees something distance , muscles pull lens , stretching it until thin almost flat , rays only slightly bent as they pass through it . When object close , muscles relax elastic becomes thicker , bending focusing them retina . ƒ Because must function under many different circumstances , there two types nerve cells retina , with shapes : cones rods They cover full range adaptation light , cones being sensitive bright light , dim light . responsible for color vision . There types cones , each containing reacts color , one set for red , one green , violet . These primary colors which , when mixed together , give white . White stimulates all sets color cells ; any other stimulates two . optic nerve , which transmits impulses from visual center brain , fibers many retina . small spot where leaves does not have any light - sensitive cells , called blind spot . eyes situated head such way human beings have stereoscopic vision , ability judge distances . Because eyes set apart , sees farther around an object its own side than does other . brain superimposes two slightly images judges distances composite image .

Reverse is simply another attempt to define such a tool , and while we now know this is n ' t the best way to go , credit should at least be given for making this kind of effort in the absence of research to develop a sound system . In other words , by using the MDS as the data gathering tool that may drive Medicare and Medicaid payment , as well as quality indicators , providers are essentially required to use reverse for reimbursement purposes .

tunnel vision Also found in : Dictionary Thesaurus Legal Financial Acronyms Idioms Encyclopedia Wikipedia vision vizh un the faculty of seeing ; called also sight adj . , adj vis ual . The basic components of vision are the eye itself , visual center in brain , and optic nerve which connects two . ( See also Plate 17 . ) How Eye Works The eye works like a camera . Light rays enter it through adjustable iris and are focused by lens onto retina , a thin light - sensitive layer which corresponds to film camera . retina converts light rays into nerve impulses , relayed to visual center . There brain interprets them as images . Like camera lens , lens reverses images as it focuses them . images on retina upside down they “ flipped over ” in center . In psychology experiment , number volunteers wore glasses that inverted everything . After 8 days , their centers adjusted this new situation , when they took off glasses , world looked upside down until their brain centers readjusted . is made up millions tiny nerve cells that contain specialized chemicals sensitive light . There two varieties these cells , rods cones Between them cover full range eye ' s adaptation light . cones sensitive bright light , rods dim At twilight , light fades , stop operating go into action . momentary blindness experienced on going from bright dim light , or from bright , is pause needed for other set cells take over . spread toward edges retina , so general but not very sharp or clear . clustered thickly center fovea centralis . When eyes turned focused object be seen image brought central area retina . In very other hand , an object seen more clearly if not looked at directly , because then its image falls an area where thicker . Color Vision Color function cones . most widely accepted theory there three types cones , each containing chemicals respond one three primary colors ( red , green , violet ) . White stimulates all sets cones ; any color stimulates only one two sets . can then interpret impulses these various colors . Man ' s color amazingly delicate ; trained expert can distinguish among many 300,000 different hues . Color vision deficiency ( popularly called “ color blindness ” ) result disorder more sets cones . great majority people with some degree deficiency lack either red green cones , can not distinguish between those colors . Complete deficiency monochromatic ) , none works , rare . Most deficiencies inherited , usually by male children through mothers grandfather with condition . Stereoscopic Vision Stereoscopic vision , depth , caused way eyes placed . Each has slightly different field vision . superimposed another , but because distance between eyes , each goes slightly around its side object . From differences indicators such position muscles when object , determine distance object . works best nearby objects . As increases , difference left - eyed right - eyed views becomes less , must depend factors determine distance . Among relative size object , clearness , receding lines perspective . These factors may fool eye ; for example , clear mountain air distant objects may seem be close . This sharpness dulled atmosphere much would familiar settings . Impaired This consist loss acuity , field , ability colors , motion eye , any function related sight . ( See blindness . ) Farsightedness , hyperopia results eyeball shorter than normal focuses behind retina .

Visually handicapped persons who visiting clinic first time being admitted hospital room require orientation environment . Ambulatory patients walked around familiarize location bathroom facility need use . Patients who bed following surgery therapeutic rest should have articles bedside table arranged same way all time found easily .

Bacteria are normal residents healthy intestine , but they should have no way escape enter abdomen , where they could cause infection . Bacteria can infect conditions hole ( perforation ) develops stomach ( due ulcer eating its way through stomach wall ) intestine ( due large number causes , including ruptured appendix ruptured diverticulum ) . infect severe case pelvic inflammatory disease ( a massive infection female organs , including uterus fallopian tubes ) . also escape abdominal cavity injury causes intestine burst , injury internal organ bleeds cavity .

When can not found , open exploratory operation ( laparotomy ) considered crucial diagnostic procedure , at same time provides opportunity begin treatment . Treatment Treatment depends source peritonitis , emergency laparotomy performed . Any perforated damaged organ repaired at this time .

Surescripts says that practices may receive electronic responses within minutes in many cases . Consultants and physicians say this approach not only could reduce the work and cost involved in prior authorizations , but should also make patients happier . Instead of being forced to wait a day or two for a pre - authorization to arrive , usually after an unsuccessful trip to the pharmacy , patients may be able to get a prescription approved leaving the physician ’ s office . At the least , notes Miami gastroenterologist James Leavitt , MD , physicians will be able to find out which drugs require prior authorization and inform patients about that in advance READ : Curing the prior authorization headache Going to the pharmacy and discovering that a medication needs pre - approval , he says , “ is a huge patient dis - satisfier .

http://medicguide.blogspot.com/2008/09/what-generates-diastolic-pressure.html
|
Medic Guide Monday , 1 September 2008 What generates the diastolic pressure ? This is an excellent question which stumped me for some time as a student . Systolic pressure generation is easy . The heart is a pump , and by contracting and forcing the left ventricle ' s blood into the systemic circulation , it raises the pressure dramatically . It ' s a little like raising the pressure in a water balloon by suddenly dumping a whole lot more water inside it . But then the contraction is over , and the heart relaxes and refills . Its systolic pressure generation is intermittent , almost as if you were turning a pump on and off and on and off and on again . During the ' off ' periods ( i.e. diastole ) , the pressure should therefore fall to zero ! Yet clearly it does not . When you go to your doctor and measure your blood pressure , you might find that it is somewhere in the region of 130 / 80 . Far from plummeting to nothing , the pressure in your brachial artery alone during the ' off ' period of the pump is enough to raise a column diastolic pressure generated ? The first key to the answer is to note the arterioles ( that the arteries feed into ) are a source of resistance to blood flow . They are fundamentally a large number of narrow pipes that the rapidly - flowing arterial blood has to force its way into , and they therefore impede the blood ' s passage . The second key to the answer is that the arteries are elastic ; that is , they can distend if the pressure in them rises . And the pressure in them does rise - on the one end they have heart tirelessly pumping blood into them , but on the other side there is the arterioles ' resistance to allowing blood to leave them . This mismatch between the amount of blood that enters vs exits the arteries during systole means that the pressure within them rises . And , because they are elastic , they bulge outwards . ( Again , you might find the water balloon analogy helpful . ) Incidentally , this ' bulge ' is what you are feeling when you palpate a patient ' s pulses . It is fundamentally caused by the systolic rise in pressure forcing the elastic arteries to bulge outwards a little . This bulge travels down the arteries rather rapidly : ( It is worth considering that if your arteries were as rigid as steel pipes , their lack of elasticity would make it impossible to feel a pulse , however well they might allow for the passage of blood . ) The stage is now all set for diastole . The distension of the arteries causes them to ' fight back ' and try to squeeze the ' extra ' blood out . ( This is the same principle that you demonstrate when you stretch an elastic band . The elasticity allows the band to stretch , but the stretch generates a force within the band that ' wants ' to make it contract back to normal again . ) But try as they might , the ' extra ' blood pushed into the arteries by the heart ca n ' all make its way through to the arterioles by the end of systole . The resistance in the arterioles turns out to be enough to slow the arterial blood flow down so much that there is still more of this ' surplus ' blood to be expelled come diastole . And that ongoing process generates diastolic pressure . The distended arteries generate a force , due to their elastic properties , that will tend to propel blood onwards until they are no longer distended anymore . They never quite get there , of course ( or else the diastolic pressure would finally reach zero ) - systole comes before they can ever accomplish their thankless mission . And thus , we have diastolic pressure .

Natural Solutions for Treating Chickenpox Posted on February 8 , 2012 Chickenpox is caused by a virus called Varicella Zoster virus ( VZV ) . This virus is related to the herpes virus and causes chickenpox in children and Herpes Zoster ( or shingles ) in adults ( although very rare , shingles can also occur in children ) . Chickenpox starts off with a few red spots or bumps that change into blisters or pimples , and then into open sores that form a crust . This eruption can be accompanied by fever and sores in the mouth and genital area . The fever is usually directly related to the state of the rash : the bigger the rash , the higher the fever . Chickenpox is typically a benign , self - limited disease , but serious complications can arise , including shingles and secondary bacterial infections ( most often with Strept or Staph bacteria ) like impetigo or cellulitis . The risk of complications is highest in people with compromised immune systems , newborns or adults . Although rare , serious complications in children include pneumonia , deep tissue infection , joint infections and encephalitis . As with other viral infections , I recommend the following : Increase the dose of Vitamin D3 for the first 3 days to ‘ boost ’ the immune system . The daily winter dose is usually 1000 - 2000 IU per day , but depends on your child ’ s age and their vitamin D status . Other immune boosters that I like to use are Probiotics , Omega 3 ′ s and Elderberry syrup Other herbs that have been used as immuno - stimulants in adults are olive leaf , Astragalus and Lysine ( Lysine has been shown to help with herpes viruses , which are , as mentioned above , related to the chickenpox virus ) Adequate water intake is very important , in addition to any smoothies and fresh juices that are consumed . The daily target of water intake ( in fluid ounces ) can be calculated by dividing your child ’ s weight by 2 ( for example , for a 30 lb child , the goal would be 15 oz ) . This amount needs to be increased if fever is present . Diet considerations A diet rich in whole foods , with plenty of vegetables and fruits in a variety of colors . This “ rainbow diet ” has been shown to provide the phyto - nutrients needed to strengthen the immune system . Juices rich in vitamin A and C , such as fresh carrot juice or fresh squeezed lemon juice with water and honey Chicken soup ( chicken should be organic or at least antibiotic and hormone free ) Vegetable broth with shiitake mushrooms Smoothies with kale , cabbage , beet , broccoli Acerola cherries Blackberries Elderberries For painful mouth and throat ulcers , a soft diet should be used . Infants should receive fluids by cup , spoon , or syringe rather than bottle because the nipple can cause increased pain . Limit sugar and processed foods . No corn syrup . No sodas . Limit dairy , especially if mouth sores are present . Fermented dairy is OK ( yogurt or kefir ) . Fever Treatment Hydrotheraphy and “ warming socks ” ( see below ) Do not treat a mild fever with medications if it is below 101.5 and your child is feeling relatively OK . Studies have shown that children do better overall when some fever is allowed to continue during this illness . If medication is necessary because your child is bothered by the fever or the fever is high , then use acetaminophen ( for example , Tylenol ) Never use aspirin because of the risk of Reye ’ s syndrome Ibuprofen is also not recommended because it might increase the risk of severe streptotoccal skin infections How do you know your child is well hydrated when fever is present ? He / she should be voiding at least 5 times per day and the urine should not be too dark in color . Topical remedies that you can use to soothe the rash : Calendula cream Cool / lukewarm baths in which you can add 2 ounces ( 60 ml ) baking soda per tub Calamine Lotion apply lotion to the chickenpox that itch the most or massage them with an ice cube for 10 minutes Other options : Tea Tree Oil , oatmeal baths , Aloe Vera gel Homeopathic remedies Rhus toxicodendron – this remedy is indicated in skin lesions which are similar to those of chickenpox , small vesicles containing a transparent clear liquid , and especially if the itching is improved by heat . Use 9 - 15c , use 3 pellets under the tongue , 2 - 4 times per day Mezereum – recommended in the later phase if the vesicles are covered with whitish crusts . Use 5c , 3 pellets , 2 - 4 times per day . Benadryl Medicine If itching becomes severe or interferes with sleep , give oral Benadryl . Start with a lower dose to make sure your child does not get too drowsy . If a child with chickenpox gets too sleepy , you need to call your doctor or go to the ER to make sure he is not developing encephalitis , a rare but severe complication . Do n ’ t use lotions containing Benadryl because they can be absorbed through the inflamed skin and cause side effects . Trim fingernails and wash hands frequently to prevent impetigo ( infected sores ) . Discourage picking and scratching . WARMING SOCKS This treatment acts to reflexively increase circulation and decrease congestion in the upper respiratory passages , head , and throat . It has a sedating action and many patients report that they sleep much better during the treatment . This treatment is also effective for pain relief and increases the healing response during acute infections . The warming sock treatment is best if repeated for three nights in a row , or as instructed by your physician . Supplies 1 pair thin cotton socks 1 pair thick wool socks Warm bath or foot bath Directions Warm your feet first . This may be done by taking a hot shower or bath , or by simply soaking them in a tub of hot water for 5 - 10 minutes . This is very important as the treatment will not be as effective and could be harmful if feet are not warmed first . Take a pair of thin cotton socks and soak them completely in the foot bath water . Wring the socks out thoroughly so they do not drip and set them on the edge of the tub next to you . The socks should be cold by the time you are done warming your feet .
