Q

What were the consequences of the practices made in Renaissance?

A
  • Autopsy as evidence of good diagnosis in clinical practice
  • New intention with autopsies and new attitude towards AL (anatomic lesion)

Q

What were the 2 key points of the symptomatic picture in the Renaissance?

Q

Bacteriology?

A

▪ First description of bacteria
▪ Emergence of the term ‘microbe’
▪ First classifications of bacteria
▪Discovery of spores and their role in spontaneous generation

17
Q

What is the etiopathological approach?

A

disease as external aggression by microorganisms

18
Q

General theory of infectious disease?

A

The microorganism must be:
- found in abundance in all organisms that suffer the disease, but not in healthy organisms
- able to be isolated in a diseased organism and cultivated in vitro
- isolated from the inoculated experimental host and identified as identical to the origina

  • The microorganism produced in vitro must cause the disease when introduced into a healthy organism
19
Q

What does the technification of medicine consist on?

A
  • Growing subordination of the patient to health technologies and medicalization of natural phenomena
  • Tendency to over-diagnosis
  • Medical knowledge and technology are never politically and culturally neutral
  • The indiscriminate use of diagnostic and therapeutic technologies is having an obvious impact on health costs and the sustainability of public health care system
  • There has been an expropriation of health driven by economic interests and health professionals
20
Q

What did the social and sanitary impact entail?

A
  • It provided a scientific explination for the mechanism of contagion and encouraged the development of contemporary epidemiology
  • Prompted a marked change of focus in therapeutics
  • Encouraged the adoption of antisepsis measures, the discovery of drugs, and the development of effective biological resources to prevent infectious diseases
