other GNR and coccobacilli Flashcards
pseudomonas infections
HAP/VAP, bacteremia, UTI, surgical site infection, community infections
heamophilus (para) influenza morphology
gram negative coccobacilli
HACEK morphology
gram negative rod
gram negative bacilli
pseudomonas aeruginosa, stenotrophomonas maltophilia, HACEK group
heamophilus (para) influenza MIC?
no MIC because beta lactamase activity only
pseudomonas resistance
efflux pump upregulation, down regulation of porin OprD (bad for carbapenems), inducible AmpC, ESBL
pathogenesis of pseudomonas
exotoxin A disrupts protein synthesis and causes tissue damage; flagella and pili help with motility; lipid A of LPS is an endotoxin; alginate (mucous)
stenotrophomas maltophilia morphology
non lactose fermenting GNR
heamophilus (para) influenza infections
community-acquired respiratory infections
acinetobacter baumanii infections
HAP/VAP and catheter-associated infections like bacteremia/UTI
infections from stenotrophomas maltophilia
VAP
acinetobacter baumanii morphology
gram negative coccobacilli
gram negative coccobacilli
acinetobacter baumanii, heamophilus (para) influenza, moraxella catarrhalis
pseudomonas aeruginosa morpholgy
non lactose fermenting GNR
moraxella catarrhalis infections
community acquired respiratory infections
