Q

primary infection HSV

A

prodromal symptoms
- fever, headache, malasie, nausea, vomitting

thin walled small vesicles–QUICKLY RUPTURE – shallow, round, discrete ulcers– large irregular painful ulcers of the lips and oral cavity (gingivostomatitis) – surrounded by an arythematous halo – heal spontaneously in 7-14 days

Q

tx for HSV

A

acyclovir (zovirax) – for all members of herpes
- synthetic purine nucleoside specificall against human herpes virus

mechanism – highly selective – ONLY ACTIVE WHEN INFECTED

  • viral thymidine kinase (contained in the virus)

the TK converts to active form – now active acyclovir triphosphate from which can be inorporated into growing chains of viral DNA, resulting in termination of viral DNA

terminates viral DNA

Q

marginal gingiva is not affected in

A

pemphigoid

26
Q

acyclovir work on latent?

A

no - does not elminate latent virus

27
Q

acyclovir dependent on

A

renal excretion, thus the half-life is dependent on renal function

so risk of renal dysfunction in patients haing nephrotix agents

28
Q

acyclovir dependent on

A

renal excretion, thus the half-life is dependent on renal function

so risk of renal dysfunction in patients haing nephrotix agents

29
Q

contraindications for primary viral infections

A

use of corticosteroids – because it can cause immunosuppression

if get very severe infection then maybe but should not be getting these from you

30
Q

Herpes zoster aja

A

shingles

31
Q

primary infection of varicella zoster

A

chickenpox- varicella – occurs in susceptible children with no antibodies

become lifeling carriers - antibodies positive latent virus persist in ganglia of spinal nerves and cranial nerves

32
Q

reactivation of varicella zoster

A

immunosuppression
trauma
local x ray radiation
malignancy of ganglia

33
Q

reactivatino of v2 and v3 vs reactivation of herpes

A

herpes - bilateral distriubtion vs v2 / v3 - unilateral and segmental distribution with SHOOTING PAIN

34
Q

shooting pain along the affected seneory of ____ nerves

A

prodromal period of herpes zoster

35
Q

treatment for herpes zoster

A

acyclovir tablet

36
Q

tx for immunocompromised for herpes zoster

A

acyclovir sodium intravenous solution (50 mg/ml) for immunocompromised cases

37
Q

important in terms of treatment with acyclovir and herpes zoster

A

PROMPTNESS of tx within 72 hours of rash onset – may significantly influence the degree of beenfir from therapy

38
Q

herpes zoster of v2 and 3?

A

oral and facial lesions - but HZ of V1 is more common

39
Q

which is an acute lesion

A

erythema multiforme

40
Q

definition of erythema multiforme

A

immune mediated acute inflammatory disease of the skin and mucosal membranes frequently in young adults and children

41
Q

location of EM

A

involved lesions in SUPERFICIAL VESSELS

- this is where immune reaction is occuring

42
Q

most common site of EM simplex

A

LIPS !!!

prominent and diagnostic site (NOT gingiva)

43
Q

skin leison of EM looks

A

target or iris lesion - consisting of a central bulla or pale cleaning area surrounded by edema and bands of erythema OR
non specific macules, papules, and vesicles possibly containing petachiae in the center of the lesion

44
Q

steven johnson syndrome

A

acute and generalized vesicles, bullae, erosive or denuded lesions involving skin, mouth, eyes, and genitals with prodromal symptoms of fever and malaise

45
Q

tx for mild cases of EM

A

topical anesthetic mouthwashes - dexamethasone (decadron) elixir 0.5 mg/ 5 ml

46
Q

prednisone

A

for severe cases of EM - this is a steroid

oral capsule that is ANTI-INFLAMMAOTRY AND SUPPRESSES T - CELL MEDIATED IMMUNE SYSTEM

47
Q

use of prednison - basic

A

alternate day therapy or daily tx

48
Q

daily therapy for prednisone

A

20-50 mg every morning 5-7 days

once a day morning before 8 am to limit the suppression of patients own immune

max function with be between 2pm- 8 am

49
Q

give prednisone when for least side affect

A

before 8 am

50
Q

alternative day therapy gives

A

least side effect if need to do this long term

40 mg to 100 mg every other day before 8 am for 5-7

51
Q

following course with prednisone?

A

decrease the dose

so if did daily therapy of 20-40 decrease by 5 mg to 10 mg on each succesive day in the morning at 8 am

if did the alternate day therapy then decrease by 10 to 20 mg on every oter morning before 8 am

52
Q

percautions of steroid use

have to know this

A

drug induced secondary adrenal suppresive effect (drug induced secondary adrenocortical insufficiency)

suppression of immune system –> more susceptible to infections
