Abstract

Introduction: Cellulitis is an inflammation of the dermis and subcutaneous tissue with varying severity from mild to life-threatening because it can easily develop into sepsis. Cellulitis is characterized by erythema, swelling, high fever and pain. The causative factors include trauma (insect bites, scratches or post-surgery), immunosuppression, old age, diabetes, obesity and smoking. The most common bacterial agents are Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus group A, Escherichia coli and other anaerobic enterobacteria. Methods: This study uses a descriptive case report of a 53-year-old female patient with a diagnosis of cellulitis, an unstagable initial wound and complications of obesity, anemia and hepatitis B. Results and Discussion: Cellulitis Management (TALASE) consisting of handling immune deficits, circulation and skin integrity so that patients can recover according to the target time (Winner Scale) within 9 weeks. Recommendation: Cellulitis patients who were initially only able to be treated in hospitals, have been proven to be able to be treated in outpatient health facilities through collaboration in establishing the right diagnosis and treatment using "TALASE".
