A Novel Information Technology in Management of Neuro-Infection After Subdural Empyema: A Case Report
Abstract
There is little data in the literature on the possible sequelae of subdural empyema. The presented case describes the novel information approach in diagnosis
and treatment of a patient, who, after surgery for interhemispheric empyema, continued to have various complaints manifested by signs of damage to the
nervous system, with which he sought treatment at the Outpatient department of the Research Institute of Virology. The patient underwent medicament
testing to identify possible infectious agents in the patient’s internal organs, followed by application of levofloxacin, ribavirin and nystatin (tablet forms)
placed in the field created by an ultra-low intensity laser as it passes through a spirally twisted waveguide emitter of the “device for transfer information
from a drug to the human body”.According to the MRI of the brain and the patient’s clinical condition, this management tactic led to the disappearance of
the patient’s leading complaints, a decrease in the symptoms of the disease, and an improvement in the prognosis of the pathological process. The proposed
clinical approach is innovative, and the case report describes the results of treating a patient with neuro-infection after subdural empyema who was treated
with a novel information medicine method. The study was conducted in accordance with the principles of the Declaration of Helsinki and was approved by
the Institutional Review Board of the Research Institute of Virology
How strong is the evidence?
Evidence Hub reads this as a case report, done in people. Its evidence level is 5 of 5 (Very low · case / narrative / animal / in vitro / in silico). Case reports, narrative reviews, and animal, cell or computer-model studies give the weakest evidence for human health.
