Skeletal infections among intravenous drug abusers. Mycotic aneurysms in intravenous drug abusers. Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome in intravenous drug abusers. This book is divided into two sections, one addressing the general concepts we deem appropriate for management of infection among drug users and the other detailing the specific diseases one may encounter. The first section contains chapters on the epidemiology of drug abuse and its related infections, the immunology of addicted individuals, the techniques required in the microbiology laboratory when managing such patients, and finally the management of the addict as a patient, with attention to infection control concerns and the psychological aspect of effectively delivering care in the hospital setting. The remainder of the book contains chapters devoted to the specific infectious entities and complications, which are grouped primarily according to the organ systems involved.
