Why is treatment done earlier than admission?
Sometimes, when a case is urgent and vital, hospitals may proceed with delivering medical care right away to save a life, even before the finalization of admission procedures. Usually, when this happens, hospitals put the bill on our credit until the funds are transferred to their accounts.
That's why the chronology can sometimes be in disorder.

YOBE STATE SPECIALIST HOSPITAL DAMATURU
Damaturu, Yobe State, 6 Gujba Road, Nigeria
Background
Fatima is a two-year-old girl, an internally displaced child from a rural village, currently residing in an IDP camp with her parents. She was seemingly healthy until two days ago when she developed fever and generalized body weakness. Upon arrival at the hospital, she was examined and investigated. Urgent treatment is required.
Medical history
Two-year-old Fatima was admitted on account of severe malaria. Upon admission, she was treated effectively, and the fever subsided and her clinical condition improved.
Outcome
Malaria should be treated promptly with the use of antimalarial drugs. If left untreated, it can lead to severe complications and even death. It can result in organ failure, severe anemia, neurological issues, and in some cases, prove fatal, making early diagnosis and treatment crucial for preventing these life-threatening consequences.
