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 DAMATURUDamaturu, Yobe State, 6 Gujba Road, Nigeria
Background

Fatima is a calm child, always smiling even to strangers. Fatima presented with a 4-day history of high fever, cough, difficulty and noisy breathing. Her parents reported irritability, loss of appetite, and increased fussiness. On presentation at our hospital, Fatima was evaluated and diagnosed with Infection of the lungs called Pneumonia.

Medical history

Fatima was admitted in our facility where she was managed as a case of severe bronchopneumonia + croup. She had all her parenteral antibiotics and other supportive medications. She responded well to the management as the presenting symptoms subsided. She was later discharged home and placed on follow-up.

Prognosis

Fatima is suffering from a chest infection called Pneumonia which is treatable with antibiotics especially when treatment is started early and with the appropriate antibiotics. Without treatment, it has the tendency to cause life threatening complications like respiratory compromise. Prognosis is better once treated early and appropriately.
