respiratory 4; lower respiratory tract infections Flashcards
influenza that came from warm standing water
legionella
test for TB
PPD skin test
bacterial pneumonia
productive cough high fever elevated WBC infiltrates xray more severe antibiotics needed
causes cell mediated immune response
forms ghon’s focus (necrosing granulomas)
mycobacterium tuberculosis
respiratory syncytial virus
RSV
bronchiolitis
delayed cell-mediated hypersensitivity
type 4 immune response
blastomycosis
fungal pneumonia from south central and northwestern soil along rivers
antibiotics dont work
antifungals needed
complication from flu
infectious pneumonia
wbc circle TB and it becomes latent and cannot spread
secondary exposure can activate it again or if one becomes immunocompromised through trauma
latent still needs to be treated
immunocompetent
active tuberculosis sx
productive cough
high fever
fatigue
can come from first exopsure
caused from mycobacterium tuberculosis (organisms)
tuberculosis
productive cough
high fever
fatigue
can come from first exposure
active tuberculosis
immunocompetent
wbc circle TB and it becomes latent and cannot spread, but secondary exposure can activated it again or if one becomes immunocompromised through trauma
latent still needs to be treated
infectious
noninfectious
hospital acquired
legionella
types of pneumonias
productive cough =
wet cough
fungal pneumonia from south central and northwestern soil along rivers
blastomycosis
types of pneumonias
infectious
noninfectious
hospital acquired
legionella
RSV
respiratory syncytial virus
immunocompromised
likely to get TB from first exposure
weak immune system (maybe with HIV)
nosocomial pneumonia =
hospital acquired
nonproductive cough low fever nromal WBC minimal xray change less severe no antibiotics
viral pneumonias
types of atypical infectious peneumonia
viral
fungal
PPD test
test for TB
caused 1.5 million avoidable world deaths
tuberculosis
typical infectious pneumonia
bacterial
non infectious pneumonia =
aspirant
viral pneumonia traits
nonproductive cough low fever normal WBC minimal xray change less severe no antibiotics
legionella
influenza that came from warm standing water
cough
shortness of breath
fever from infection
pneumonia
aspirant pneumonia =
noninfectious
swelling if positive
type 4 immune response if latent
blood test for addition test, vaccine and latent have same reaction
PPD skin test
swelling if positive
type 4 immune response if latent
blood test for additional testing, vaccine and latent have same reaction
PPD test
fungal infections include
histoplasmosis
blastomycosis
hospital acquired pneumonia =
nosocomial; bacterial
histoplasmosis
blastomycosis are
fungal pneumonia infections
histoplasmosis
fungal pneumonia from birds and poultry
antibiotics dont work
antifungals needed
throw up in lungs from eating disorder or from food poisoning
bronchial surgery required
aspirant pneumonia
likely to get TB from first exposure
maybe has HIV
immunocompromised
type 4 immune response
delayed cell-mediated hypersensitivity
breathed into lungs and eats tissue, later encircled by wbc to isolate it
mycobacterium tuberculosis
productive cough high fever elevated WBC infiltrates in xray more severe antibiotics needed
bacterial pneumonia
mycobacterium tuberculosis
causes cell mediated immune response
forms ghon’s focus (necrosing granulomas)
has thick waxy coat
survives against most meds; needs specific ones
breathed into lungs and eats tissue
later encircled by wbc to isolate it
bronchiolitis
respiratory syncytial virus
aspirant pneumonia traits
throw up in lungs from eating disorder or food poisoning
bronchial surgery required
fungal pneumonia from birds and poultry
histoplasmosis
bronciolitis is caused by
respiratory syncytial virus
RSV =
respiratory syncytial virus
respiratory syncytial virus causes
bronchiolitis
