Bacterial
types of diseases
examples
pathogenesis
Tx
Viral
ibid (same as above)
Skin
covers body
protects
1st line of defense
unhospitable environment
acidity- fatty acids
dry
being bombarded by radiation
physical barrier
can be broken
Flora
protective function
competes with pathogenesis
resident
Staphylococcus epidermidis
Gram positive
90% of flora
resident bacteria-can cause infection
Bacterial diseases
Furunculosis
boils
furnucles
S. aureus (causative agent)
enters hair follicle
infects subcutaneous tissue
develops into abscess (pus)
virulence factor
Protein A
binds to F c of Ab
prevents binding of Ab to F c R (receptor) on macrophages
allows spread
Tx
antibiotics
tests must be ran, person may die before Tx may begin
Scalded Skin Syndrome
Ritter's disease
Staph.
fatal
toxin mediated
infants, adults, children
Sx
redness
malaise
irritability
fever
wrinkled skin
blisters
swell
burst
painful-tender to touch
sand paper like skin
5% of Staph.
Pathogenesis
exfoliants
virulence factor that bind to "glue" that holds skin together
Esterase (virulence factor site)
can kill patient
makes skin come off
Tx
isolation
PPE
methicillin
debridement (cut out infected parts)
Impetigo
outer skin layers
S. aureus or Streptococcus pyogenes ( fear!!) responsible for most deaths
Pathogenesis
starts out with a scratch
Virulence factors
Proteases (mess with protein)
Nucleases (go after nucleic acid)
Hyaluronidase (destroys hyaluronic acid (keeps tissue together))
M Protein (interferes with phagocytosis)
most prevalent in children that live in humid places
Tx
Penicillin (Pn)
Erythromycin (Em)
Pv
personal cleanliness
Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever
Sx
headache
muscle and joint pain
fever
faint rash
palms
wrists
ankles
soles of feet
spread to arms, legs, rest of body
becomes raised (swelled)
becomes hemorrhagic
bleeding may come from mouth and nose
may spread to heart and kidney-can cause shock
Rickettsia rickettsii
obligate-intracellular
Gram negative
non-motile
coccobacilli (oval)
Pathogenesis
tick bite
blood vessel cells
endocytosis
inflammation
at sites where bacteria entered cells
clotting
necrosis (tissue death)
spread from skin to organs
endotoxins
induce shock
intravascular coaugulation
zoonotic disease
Pv
avoid ticks
Tx
Tetracyclin (Tc)
Chloramphenicol (Cm)
5% death rate if treated right
Lyme Disease
spirochete
Lyme, CT
causative agent - Borrelia burgdorferi
11-25 um in length
Sx
erythema chronicum migrans (skin rash) 1
heart and nervous system malfunction 2
arthritis 3
Pathogenesis
tick bite
tissue
inflammation-rash
1- IS down
2 and 3- IS up
Tx
doxycycline
erthyromycin (Em)
Ampicillin (Amp)
Ceftriaxane
Viral Diseases
Chicken Pox
Varicella Zoster (virus)
Sx
Macules
Papules
Vesicles
Pustulus
breaks (release virus)
crust
pruitic (itchy)
2 0 infections
Shingles- old people chicken pox
