🗑
|
||||
| Signs of disease are | definitive, objective, and measurable (fever, color of mole)
🗑
|
||||
| Vital Signs are | signs vital to life (pulse, blood pressure, body temperature, and respiratory rate)

||||
| The body's natural barriers include | the skin, the immune response, the inflammatory response, and allergic or hypersensitivity reactions
🗑
|
||||
| Vector borne diseases gain entrance to the body by | being brought in by an insect or other animal
🗑
|
||||
| Biological vectors are transmitted | insect or animal has the pathogen living inside it and when it bites you it infects your blood with the organism. (example: malaria from Anopheles mosquito)
🗑
|
||||
| Mechanical vector are transmitted | when an insect or animal has the pathogen on its body and spreads it to you by landing on an open wound
🗑
|
||||
| In direct contact transmissions | the pathogen comes in direct contact with an open wound
🗑
|
||||
| In indirect contact transmissions | pathogens from one individual are transferred to another by inanimate objects. (ex. medical equipment is not sterilized before it is used on the next patient)
🗑
|
||||

🗑
|
||||
| In Airborne transmission | diseases are spread through droplets that contain the pathogen
🗑
|
||||
| The chain of infection | begins with the creation of the infection, continues with the transportation of the pathogen, and then ends with the entry into the body.
