摘要:

Stevens-Johnson syndrome is a very serious multisystem problem which can lead to major dermatologic, respiratory, gastrointestinal, opthalmic, renal, and neurological complications resulting in death, yet little is known about it. This patient requires critical care similar to burn patients, but with special emphasis on the additional complications from lesions in other body systems. The first article in this series focuses on the pathophysiology aspects of this critical illness while the second focuses on the nursing care in a multisystem case application.
