Mpox or Monkeypox
Introduction to Mpox
• Mpox is a rare viral disease similar to smallpox
• Formerly called monkeypox, renamed in 2022 to avoid stigma
• Causes flu-like symptoms and a characteristic rash
• Belongs to the genus Orthopoxvirus
Transmission
• Spreads through close contact with infected persons or animals
• Can spread via respiratory droplets, bodily fluids, or contaminated materials
• Person-to-person transmission often occurs through intimate situations
• Animal-to-person transmission happens through bites, scratches, or direct contact
Symptoms
• Symptoms may appear several days to weeks after exposure
• Common symptoms include fever, rash, swollen lymph nodes, and fatigue
• Rash progresses from flat spots to fluid-filled blisters, then crusts and falls off
• Illness typically lasts 2-4 weeks
Diagnosis and Treatment
• Diagnosed through tissue sample from lesions using PCR testing
• No specific approved treatment, but antivirals may be used in severe cases
• Most cases resolve on their own with supportive care
• Antibiotics may be given for secondary bacterial infections
Prevention
• Vaccination is available for high-risk individuals or post-exposure
• Avoid contact with infected animals and contaminated materials
• Practice good hygiene, including frequent handwashing
• Use personal protective equipment when caring for infected individuals
Mpox vs. Other Diseases
• Similar to but milder than smallpox (which has been eradicated)
• Different from chickenpox, which is caused by a herpes virus
• Mpox rash develops all at once, unlike chickenpox's wave-like pattern
• Swollen lymph nodes more common in mpox than chickenpox
Outlook and When to Seek Care
• Most cases resolve within 2-4 weeks without complications
• Rare cases can be fatal or lead to serious complications
• Seek medical care for new rashes, close contact with infected individuals
• Go to ER for severe symptoms like trouble breathing or confusion

Duplex ultrasound is a more comprehensive and informative tool compared to the ABI in assessing peripheral arterial disease (PAD). Advantages of Duplex Ultrasound: Direct visualization: Provides detailed images of blood vessels, allowing for identification of specific lesions, such as stenosis, occlusions, and aneurysms. Quantitative assessment: Accurately measures blood flow velocity, which helps determine the severity of PAD. Comprehensive evaluation: Can assess both arterial and venous circulation, providing a more complete picture of the patient's vascular health.
Noncompressible arteries, indicated by an ankle-brachial index (ABI) value greater than 1.4, refer to lower extremity vessels that are resistant to compression by a blood pressure cuff. This can occur in certain patient populations, such as those with diabetes or advanced age, where the arteries become heavily calcified and less pliable. When arteries are noncompressible, the ankle pressure measurement may be falsely elevated, resulting in an ABI value that is artifactually high. This can lead to a false-negative result, where the ABI fails to detect the presence of peripheral arterial disease (PAD) that may be present.
Why is B the answer to question 2? This is a Mobitz 2 Type of AV block that shouldn't be treated with Atropine. Plus we have no idea of the frequency of the pulse...
The ECG can be either second degree type I or type II, so atropine use may be reasonable. Additionally, the other 3 answers are not suitable. If the definite rhythm of a symptomatic bradycardia cannot be correctly interpreted, atropine use is not contraindicated.

Hi me and my brothers where born with this. Will methylene blue work and how can we get this?
Methylene blue might not be as beneficial in some congenital methemoglobinemia, you should discuss further management with your physician.
77% occurs in the lower limbs!! Thanks.
yes, significantly more in lower extremities than upper.
