septicemia | blood poisoning; pathogens typically do not grow in blood (lymphocytes and low Fe+3) |
lymphangitis | inflammation of lymph nodes |
sepsis | toxic conditions from septicemia |
septic shock | endotoxin; 1 millionth of a gram |
Toxemia | presense of toxins in blood (i.e. as occurs in tetanus) |
peripheral fever | CV system; disease of childbirth (Semmelweis, 1840's)disinfectant procedures; Strep pyogenes |
endocarditis | CV system; acute = Staph aureus; inflammation of inner heart lining, destruction of heart valves |
rheumatic fever | CV system; repeated infections of Strep pyogenes (strep throat); 4-18 yr olds; joint pain nodule and lumpy joints; M protein antigens, antibody response damages heart |
tularemia | CV system; Franciella tularensis; rabbits & squirrels; small ulcers at primary site; ID50 = 10 organisms, survives in phagocyte |
brucellosis | CV system; Brucella abortus; cattle/swine, secreted in milk, milk products/direct contact; infects uterus, undulating fever rises in evening 104 F; survives phagocytes, grows intracellulary |
anthrax | CV system; Bacillus anthracis; sporeformer; long chains with squared ends; direct contact, wool, aerosol-spores; cutaneous- black necrotic dying center; inhalation- pulmonary form most severe; capsule, exotoxin |
gas gangrene | CV system; Clostridium perfringens; sporeformer; death of soft tissue; seen in diabetics; toxin travels down muscle bundles; Pseudo aeruginosa coinfection; amputation, maggots, hyberbaric O2 |
plague | vector- rat fleas; Ysernia pestis, "Black Death" Bubonic Plague (bubos formation),pneumonic form spread person-person |
relapsing fever | vector- soft ticks; Borrelia recurrensis (or hermsii); patient recovers and fever reappears due to surface antigens changing |
lyme disease | vector- hard ticks; Borrelia burgdorferi; spirochete; rodent reservior, deer in lifecycle; "Bull's Eye" rash, later stages similar to syphilis heart neuro involvement, arthritis |
endemic typhus | vector- body louse; Rickettsia prowazekii; louse gut growth excreted in feces; host scratches rubs in feces; high prolonged fever severe headache; killed Anne Frank |
rocky mountain spotted fever | vector- ticks; Rickettsia rickettsii; rash appears 1st on palms, soles then entire body; mistaken for measles; kidney & heart failure |
Streptococcal pharyngitis | respiratory; Strep pyogenes; can lead to otidis media; M protein makes resistant to phagocytosis |
scarlet fever | respiratory; Strep pyogenes; erythrogenic toxin produces small red "goose bumps" entire body EXCEPT face, palms, soles |
diphtheria | respiratory; Corynebacterium diphtheriae; club shaped/chinese characters; toxin inhibits protein syn; produces pseudomembrane at back of throat; part of DPT vaccine |
otidis media | respiratory, earache; Strep pneumoniae (35%), Hemophilis influenzae (20-30%), Mycoplasma catarrhalis (10-15%), Strep pyogenes (8-10%), Staph aureus (1-2%) |

tuberculosis (consumption) | respiratory; Mycobacterium tuberculosis; acid fast; enters lungs -> alveoli; MAIS, AIDS patients |
Legionaires disease | respiratory; Legionella pneumophila; naturally occurring in water, resistant to chlorine; high fever and pneumonia symptoms |
bacterial pneumonias | respiratory; Strep pneumoniae (lung fluid, capsulated), Hemophilis influeniae, Mycoplasma pneumoniae (fried egg appearance, "walking pneumonia"), Chlamydia pneumoniae (needs ATP, associated w/ atherosclerosis) |
dental caries | digestive; Strep mutans; requires sucrose to make detrin cement; prevention best |
peridontal disease | digestive; Treponema denticola (relative of Pallidum); gingivitis -> peridontidis |
Intoxication | ingesting a toxin |
Infection | pathogenesis due to organism |
Staphylococcal poisoning | digestive; Staph aureus; found in custards, cream pies, potato salad, ham; toxin is heat stable |
Shigellosis (Bacillary Dysentery) | digestive; Shigella dysentariae; cytotoxin Shiga; rarely involves bloodstream; blood & mucosal diarrhea; rehydration treatment |
Typhoid Fever | digestive; Salmonella typhi; only in humans (i.e. Mary Mallon); 1-3% recovered are carriers colonize in gallbladder |
Salmonellosis (Salmonella Gastroenteritis) | digestive; Salmonella typhimurium; rehydration treatment |
Cholera | digestive; Vibrio cholerae; found in water sources, along Gulf, shellfish; "Rice Water" stool, usually no fever; severe dehydration lose of water and electrolytes; rehydration treatment w/ sugar water, electrolytes |
E. coli gastroenteritis | digestive; E. coli (O157:H7); "Traveler's diarrhea" |
