Abstract | The acutely-ill febrile patient with a generalised skin rash presents a diagnostic challenge to the clinician. The differential diagnosis includes both infectious and noninfectious causes. Clinical features of the various disorders causing a skin rash are similar, and one infection may readily mimic another. The new etiologic agents have been discovered and aspects of the classic exanthems have changed considerably. Smallpox has been eliminated from the world and the widespread use of measles and rubella vaccines has changed the epidemiological aspects of these two diseases. In many areas the incidence and severity of scariet fever have decreased and the epidemiology of varicella has changed while a greater percentage of cases are now occurring in adults. | |
Summary | Bolnik z akutno nastalo vročino in izpuščajem predstavlja zdravniku diagnostični izziv, saj lahko gre pirnjegovi bolezni za nalezljivi ali nenalezljivi vzrok. Klinični izgled rizičnih kožnih sprememb je lahko podoben in ena okužba posnema drugo. Odkriti so bili novi povzročitelji in pogledi na klasične nalezljive bolezni so se spremenili. izkoreninili smo črne koze in široka uporaba cepiv proti ošpicam in rdečkam je spremenila epidemiološke poglede na ti dve bolezni. V mnogih deželah se je znižala pojavnost škrlatinke in okužbe so lažje. Spremenila se je epidemiologija noric, saj se sedaj pojavljajo pogosteje pri odraslih. | |
