Diagnosis and management of reactive infectious mucocutaneous eruption
Nicole Damari, Abbie Goodman, Catherine Bridges
Abstract
Medicine's clinical understanding of reactive infectious mucocutaneous eruption (RIME) has evolved over time. It was previously described as Mycoplasma pneumoniae-induced rash and mucositis (MIRM), and before that as a variant of Stevens-Johnson Syndrome/Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis. Here, we summarize the current understanding of best practices for RIME diagnosis and management.
