AB  - Staphylococcal  toxic  shock  syndrome  (TSS)  is  a  severe,  life-threatening  infection  attributed  to  Staphylococcus  aureus  that  can  progress  rapidly  to  multisystem  dysfunction,  severe  electrolyte  disturbances,  renal  failure,  and  shock.  Risk  factors  for  TSS  include  retained  foreign  bodies  (e.g.,  tampons,  female  barrier  contraceptives),  skin  and  soft  tissue  infections  (e.g.,  abscess,  cellulitis,  and  mastitis),  varicella  infection,  sinusitis,  surgery,  trauma,  childbirth,  and  influenza.
