Patient's question:
Child died two days after birth, blood test showed high C-reactive protein levelsDoctor's answer:
Pelvic inflammatory disease is generally difficult to detect on ultrasound unless an abscess forms. The causes of intrauterine infection are complex, and the pathogens are diverse, including bacteria, viruses, chlamydia, and so on. Pelvic inflammatory disease may spread to the uterus, leading to intrauterine infection. Inflammation of the vagina and cervix may also extend to the uterine cavity. Observing inflammatory exudate during surgery does not necessarily confirm it as the cause of intrauterine infection, as such exudate can also be seen in pregnant women without intrauterine infection. If you want to determine whether you currently have pelvic inflammatory disease, it is recommended that the hospital perform a pelvic examination, cervical secretion examination, and blood tests to confirm.
