Disease Final
G(-) Bacilli, NonEnteric
Question | Answer |
---|---|
causes bubonic plague | Yersinia pestis |
bacteria affecting GI tract | E.coli, salmonella, shigella, yersinia enterocolitica |
common agent in burn patients | Pseudomonas aeruginosa |
PNA: cough, SOB, fever G(-) bacilli, ox-, Cat+, glucose/lactose fermenting, encapsulated, non-motile | Klebsiella pneumoniae |
Causing PNA in alcoholics, debilitated, with bloody sputum, necrotic, cavitary, high mortality | K. pneumoniae |
3 y/o bulging fontanelles, tachypnea, neutrophilic leukocytosis, meningitis on CSF eval: decreased glucose, elevated LDH, G(-) bacilli, glu/lac fermenting, Cat-/ox- | E.coli (differentiation: lactose fermenting) |
sweet smelling wounds, blue-green wound, burn unit patient, G(-) motile rods, cat+, gluc/lact non-fermenter, grows 42C | Pseudomonas aeruginosa |
obligate aerobe, Non-lactose fermenting, green-blue pigment/colonies, sweet grape-like scent, exotoxin | pseudomonas aeruginosa |
G(-) pleomorphic rod, blood loving, fastidious, growth factor/lysed blood, chocolate agar, virulence: capsule | Haemophilus |
purulent epidemic meningitis, transverse BBB during septicemia in susceptible babies, Epiglottitis | H. influenzae |
causes chancroid, STD, painful genital ulcers, unilateral painful, purulent inguinal lymph (buboes) | H. ducreyi |
G(-) pleomorphic anaerobic rod, vaginal infection, malodorous vag d/c, "clue cells" over bacteria | Gardnerella vaginalis |
causes bacterial vaginosis | G. vaginalis and mycoplasma hominis |
common vaginal infection | bacterial vaginosis by Gardnerella vaginalis |
G(-) aerobic bacilli, attach to human resp epithelium, toxin-> decreased phagocytosis, lymphocytosis, hypoglycemia and impaired ability to clear bacteria, causing violent cough | bordetella pertussis |
dx by nasopharyngeal mucus culture, cough plates, direct immunofluorescent stain; prevented by DTaP | Whooping cough by bordetela pertussis |
poor gram stain, facultative anaerobe, water organism, non-human to human, common breakout in hotels and a/c units. causes necrotizing PNA | Legionella pneumophilia |
G(-) bacillus, zoonotic (rats, rodents in SW USA), resembles E.coli, transmit by flea bites, resp droplets of pneumonic plague | Yersinia pestis |
phagocytosed, virulence enable bacteria to resist destruction, rapidly enlarging lymph nodes (buboes), fever, conjunctivis, sepsis | Yersinia pestis-bubonic plague |
G(-), facultative intracellular bacilli, local to mononuclear phagocytic system, direct mucosal contact, traumatic implantation, ingestion; risk=Vet, farmers, unpasteurized dairy | brucella |
G(-) zoonotic, infect due to animal blood, tick/deer fly, raw meat | Francisella tularensis |
normal flora in animals, transmit by dog/cat bits | Pasteurella multocida |
UTI by lactose- Urease+, G(-) rod, motile | Proteus mirabilis |
UTI by G(-) rod, most common cuase of UTI in F, and pt with foley cath, present with dysuria/frequency | E.coli |
how many organisms to consider Urine culture clean catch as contaminated | 2+ organisms |
PA student at Chinese food, presents with cramps, N/V. G(+) aerobic spore-forming rods | bacillus cereus |
Poisoning by rice and veggies by what organism? | Bacillus cereus |
G(+) spore-forming anaerobic bacillus, heat labile enterotoxin, in reheated meats/gravy, watery diarrhea | Clostridium perfringens |
