Duh Flashcards
Gram (+) rods
CLOSTRIDIUM (tetani, botulinum, dificile, perfringens)
CORYNEBACTERIA (diptheria)
LISTERIA (monocytogenes)
BACILLUS (anthracis, cereus)
Gram (-) coccobacilli
Haemophilus influenza Pasturella multocida Brucella Bordetella pertussis Yersinia enterocolitica
Gram (-) cocci
NONE
Gram (-) comma shaped
HELICOBACTER pylori
CAMPYLOBACTER jejuni
VIBRIO cholera/others
Gram (-) rods
E. COLI SHIGELLA SALMONELLA PROTEUS CITROBACTER Serratia Klebsiella Enterobacter Pseudomonas
basically, if it is Gram (-), but not a comma shape, coccobacilli, or Nesseria
pathogens in macrophages
Mycobacterium tuberculosis Legionella pneumophila Salmonella typhi Brucella Coxiella
pathogens in neutrophils
Anaplasma
pathogens in epithelial cells
Shigella
Salmonella
Chlamydia
Listeria monocytogenes
pathogens in endothelial cells
Rickettsia
Bartonella
which pathogen “zippers” into cells?
listeria
pathogens that live within a vacuole
legionella chlamydia salmonella coxiella toxoplasma leishmania
pathogens that live within the cytosol
shigella
listeria
rickettsia
trypanoma cruzi
legionella intracellular mechanism
in vacuole
intercepts vesicles exiting ER
builds an ER encompassed compartment
type 4 secretion system
Abx for intracellular growth
Macrolides (azithro, clarithromicin)
Quinolones (cipro, levofloxacin)
pathogens that destroy compartment
Rickettsia
Listeria
Shigella
Rickettsia spread/intracellular growth
in vacuole
destroys vacuole
recruits actin to spread to next cell
treatment of pyelonephritis (invasive infection)
ceftriaxone
piperacillin/tazobactam
quinolone (not moxi)
if risk for MDR gram neg, then use carbapenam
treatment for relapse of pyelo
7-14 days (ceftriaxone, piper/tazo, or quinolone)
If relapse again, US for structural abn
Tx for frequent reinfection
switch from diaphragm to pill
antibiotic prophylaxis
aymptomatic bacteriuria: culture/treat ONLY if
pregnant
cytoscopy patients
