(1- to 2- p a g e case study analysis, APA FORMAT)
Your Case Study Analysis is related to the scenario provided below & the questions. You need at least 3 primary references, points supported by citation and associated current, primary references (3) provided after each e s s a y.
Scenario: A 32-year-old female presents to the ED with a chief complaint of fever, chills, nausea, vomiting, and vaginal discharge.

Labs: CBC-WBC 18, Hgb 16, Hct 44, Plat 325, Neuts & Lymphs, sed rate 46 mm/hr., C-reactive protein 67 mg/L CMP wnl
Vital signs T 103.2 F Pulse 120 Resp 22 and PaO2
99% on room air. Cardio-respiratory exam WNL with the exception of tachycardia but no murmurs, rubs, clicks, or gallops. Abdominal exam + for LLQ pain on deep palpation but no rebound or rigidity. Pelvic exam demonstrates copious foul-smelling green drainage with the reddened cervix and + bilateral adnexal tenderness. + chandelier sign. Wet prep in ER + clue cells and gram stain in ER + gram-negative diplococci.
The case reflects PID. One would suspect the patient is not forthcoming or husband is not monogamous
- The factors that affect fertility (STDs).
- Why inflammatory markers rise in STD/PID.
- Why infection happens.
- Explain the causes of a systemic reaction from infection (Lab values, Vital Signs, physical presentation, and exam).
