Popis: |
A woman in her nineties was admitted to hospital with acute abdominal pain. She had recently been discharged following treatment for severe acute cholecystitis with intravenous antibiotics and percutaneous biliary drainage. She was taking a number of drugs for other diseases, in addition to peroral antibiotics and analgesics following her former hospitalisation. She had reduced vision and used a dental prosthesis. On admission she was alert and aware of the situation, but her general condition was rather poor and she reported diffuse abdominal pain. She had a low-grade fever (38.3 °C), slight tachycardia (regular pulse of 83 beats per minute), slightly reduced oxygen saturation in ambient air (89 %) and normal blood pressure (151/83 mm Hg). Clinical examination of the abdomen revealed distension on palpation and general pressure and rebound tenderness. |
