Chapter 5: Infection
Infection Control: Practices and Principles
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| a disease that breaks down bodies immune system. Aids is caused by the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) | acquired immune deficiency syndrome |
| immunity that the body develops by overcoming a disease, through inoculation (such as flu vaccination), or through exposure to natural allergens, such as pollen, cat dander and ragweed | acquired immunity |
| reaction due to extreme sensitivity to certain foods, chemical, or other normally harmless substances | allergy |
| chemical germicides formulated for use on skin; registered and regulated by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) | antiseptics |
| showing no signs of infection | asymptomatic |
| short rod-shaped bacteria. Most common bacteria and produce diseases such as tetanus, typhoid fever and diphtheria | bacilli |
| one-celled microorganism that has both plant and animal characteristics | bacteria |
| bacteria is also known as | germs |
| capable of destroying bacteria | bactericidal |
| division of bacteria cells into two new cells called daughter cells | binary fission |
| number of visible organisms in or on an object or surface or object before decontamination or sterilization | bio-burden |
| disease-causing microorganisms carried in the body by blood or body fluids, such as HIV and hepatitis | blood borne pathogens |
| detergents that break down stubborn films and removes residue of pedicure products such as scrubs, salts, and masks | chelating soaps |
| mechanical process (scrubbing) using soap and water or detergent to remove all visible dirt, debris and many disease causing germs | clean or cleaning |
| round-shape bacteria that appears singly or in groups | cocci |
| three types of bacteria are | staphylococci, streptococci and diplococci |
| also known as communicable disease | contagious disease |
| disease that spreads from one person to another | contagious disease |
| presence of blood or other potential materials on an items surface | contamination |
| removal of blood or other potentially infectious materials on an items surface and removal of visible debris | decontamination |
| determine the nature of the disease from its symptoms | diagnosis |
| can a cosmetologist diagnosis a disease of a client | NO |
| spherical bacteria that grow in pairs and cause pneumonia | diplococci |
| transmission of blood or body fluids through touching, kissing, coughing, sneezing, and talking | direct transmission |
| abnormal condition of all or part of the body, or its systems or organs, that makes the body incapable of carrying on normal function | disease |
| chemical products that destroy all bacteria, fungi, and viruses (but not spores) on surfaces | disinfectants |
| chemical process that uses specific products to destroy harmful organisms (except bacterial spores) on environmental surfaces | disinfection |
| ability to produce an effect | efficacy |
| contact with non intact (broken) skin, blood, body fluid or other potentially infectious material that is the result of the performance of an employee's duties | exposure incident |
| slender, hairlike extensions used by bacilli and spirilla for locomotion (moving about) | flagella |
| microscopic plant parasites , which include molds, mildews, and yeasts; can produce contagious disease | fungi/fungus |
| capable of destroying fungi | fungicidal |
| blood borne virus that causes disease and can damage the liver | hepatitis |
| disinfectants that are effective for cleaning blood and body fluids | hospital disinfectants |
| HIV; virus that causes acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) | human immunodeficiency virus |
| HPV; also known as plantar warts; a virus that can infect the bottom of the foot and resembles small black dots, usually in clustered groups | human papilloma virus (HVP) |
| ability for the body to destroy and resist infection | immunity |
| transmission of blood or body fluids through contact with a intermediate contaminated object such as a razor, extractor, or nipper on an environmental surface | indirect transmission |
| invasion of body tissues by disease-causing pathogens | infection |
| methods used to eliminate or reduce the transmission of infectious organism | infection control |
| caused by or capable of being transmitted by infection | infectious |
| disease caused by pathogenic microorganisms that enter the body | infectious disease |
| condition in which the body reacts to injury, irritation, or infection; redness, heat, pain, and swelling | inflammation |
| infection such as a pimple is known as what kind of infection | local infection |
| information compiled by the manufacturer about product safety ect... | Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) |
| type of infectious bacteria that is highly resistant to conventional treatments such as antibiotics | Methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) |
| any organism of microscopic or submicroscopic size | microorganism |
| type of fungus that affects plants or grows on inanimate objects, but does not cause human infections in the salon | mildew |
| self-movement | motility |
| Known as reusable; items that can be cleaned, disinfected, and used on more then one person | multi-use |
| microscopic germ that normally exists in tap water ins small number | mycobacterium fortuitum |
| immunity that is partly inherited and partly developed through healthy living | natural immunity |
| harmless microorganisms | non-pathogenic |
| an item that is made or constructed of a material that has no pores or openings and can not absorb liquids | non porous |
| illness resulting from conditions associated with employment, such as prolonged and repeated overexposure to certain products or ingredients | occupational disease |
| organisms that grow, feed, and shelter on or in another organism; and needs a host to survive | parasite |
| disease caused by parasites, such as lice and mites | parasitic disease |
| harmful microorganisms that can cause disease or infection in humans when they invade the body | pathogenic |
| powerful tuberculocidal disinfectant | phenolic disinfectants |
| made or constructed of a material that has pores or openings | porous |
| fluid created by infection | pus |
| also known as quats; disinfectants that are very effective when used properly in the salon | quaternary ammonium compounds |
| also known as sanitizing; a chemical process for reducing the number of disease-causing germs on cleaned surfaces to a safe level | sanitation |
| contagious skin disease that is caused by the itch mite, which burrows under the skin | scabies |
| also known as disposable; items that cannot be used more than once | single-use |
| common household bleach; and effective disinfectants for the salon | sodium hypochlorite |
| spiral or corkscrew-shaped bacteria that cause diseases such as syphilis and Lyme Disease | spirilla |
| pus-forming bacteria that grow in clusters like a bunch of grapes; and cause abscesses, pustules and boils | staphylococci |
| process that completely destroys all microbial life, including spores | sterilization |
| pus-forming bacteria arranged in curved lines resembling a string of beads; causes infections such as strep throat and blood poisoning | streptococci |
| disease that affects the body as a whole | systemic disease |
| also known as barber itch; and limited to the beard area of the face, neck and around the scalp | tinea barbae |
