|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| show | 70% following injury, elderly women with waning immunity or inadequate adult immunizations, "skin-popping" black tar heroin users, body piercings
🗑
|
||||
| show | light chain - toxic moiety (strongly homologous with botulinum toxin) binds peripheral nerves and travels retrograde to GABA and glycinergic interneuron terminals // heavy chain is cleaved from light chain - cell receptor specificity @ neuron target
🗑
|
||||
| show | Zn-dependent endopeptidase cleaves synaptobrevin to prevent NT release by descending inhibitory neurons = continuous contraction of antagonist muscles = muscular rigidity and hypersympathetic state
🗑
|
||||
| signs and sx of generalized tetanus aka spastic paralysis | show 🗑
|
||||
| cephalic tetanus | show 🗑
|
||||
| accidental umbilical stump inoculation leads to: | show 🗑
|
||||
| show | electromyography and spatula test to confirm true tetanus. o/w: metoclopramide or phenothiazine-induced dystonia or dental abscess
🗑
|
||||
| show | maintain airway & feeding tube for hypernutrition, keep room quiet and dark, benzodiazepines IV or intrathecal baclofen, NMJ blockers, passive and active immunization to tetanus, metronidazole and wound debridement, labetalol IV or morphine & heparin
🗑
|
||||
| show | preg women, those in close contact with neonates and infants, adults > 65 y/o
🗑
|
||||
| show | if fresh contaminated wound in pt with inadequate immunization hx OR pts who clinically have tetanus
🗑
|
||||
| show | grows on egg yolk agar and is lipase (+) so it leaves a clear halo around the colonies
🗑
|
||||
| show | ingestion of spores in home-canned foods or fruits or fish products with pH > 4.6 or eating meat/blubber in Alaska
🗑
|
||||
| specific cases where wound botulism risk goes way up | show 🗑
|
||||
| show | resembles tetanospasmin, is the single most poisonous substance known on earth. forms A, B, E & F are most often seen in foods and cause human infections.
🗑
|
||||
| subtypes of botulinum toxin seen in drug users | show 🗑
|
||||
| show | the most frequently encountered form in the US. due to colonization of the gut by the clostridia and then production of the toxin in vivo.
🗑
|
||||
| pathogenesis of botulinum toxin | show 🗑
|
||||
| show | SNAP-25, syntaxin or VAMP/synaptobrevin - causes irreversible release of ACh from NMJ, which results in flaccid paralysis
🗑
|
||||
| clinical manifestations of botulism | show 🗑
|
||||
| show | constipation instead of diarrhea (other nl signs/sx: weak cry, lethargy, poor feeding, hypotonia, drooling and resp failure)
🗑
|
||||
| show | MG, Guillain-Barre syndrome, Eaton-Lambert syndrome, acute intermittent porphyria, tick paralysis, paralytic shellfish poisoning, puffer fish ingestion, organophosphates, nerve gas or atropine poisoining
🗑
|
||||
| show | may send off a toxin assay to CDC or do cx, but you need to take charge as soon as its suspected b/c of the corresponding clinical picture
🗑
|
||||
| tx of botulism | show 🗑
|
||||
| show | baby BIG IV (botulism immune globulin)
🗑
|
||||
| show | debride and give PCN or metronidazole. DON'T GIVE clindamycin or aminoglycosides - may make things worse
🗑
