Faisal with pneumonia
- presented with fever with chills, cough with
yellowish sputum & and respiratory distress
- fever: an adaptive mechanism for controlling
infection, produced by certain exogenous (largely
microbial) stimuli that activate bone-marrow-derived
phagocytes to release a pyrogen
- diagnosed with
- using
- Xray
- blood tests
- sputum tests
- Red currant jelly - Klebsiella
- Green or yellow - infection / pneumonia
- Yellow- Live neutrophils, acute bronchitis
- Brown and black - CWP
- Gray- COPD
- pulse oxymetry
- Fatigue
- Chest pain when
breathing or
coughing
- pleurisy
- anatomy of the lung
- how does the lung function?
- how does it happen?
- (RSV,
influenza,
para-influenza
and
adeno).
- children aged 2
months to 2 years
- treatment
- Ribavirin
Palivizumab
- Antibiotic Resistance
- Enzymatic inactivation
- Destruction of penicillin by
penicillinases enzymes.
- Altered target
- Changes in penicillin binding proteins. Mutational changes in original PBPs or
acquisition of different PBPs will lead to inability of the antibiotic to bind to the PBP
and inhibit cell wall synthesis
- Decreased uptake
- Porin channel formation is decreased. Since this is where
beta-lactams cross the outer membrane to reach the PBP of
Gram-negative bacteria, a change in the number or character of
these channels can reduce betalacta uptake
- vaccination
- PSV Polysaccharide
- PCV Conjugate
- same one but associated with a
protein that is like tetanus,
rendering it antigenic
- not antigenic in
childrena nd infants
- mycoplasma
pneumonia,
chlamydia
pneumonia
- 5-14 years
- causes atypical
pneumonia
- patchy on xray
- risk of hemolytic
anemia
- treatment
- macrolides
- cephalosporins
- streptococcus
pneumonia
- spread by respiratory drops
- most common in adults
- causes lobular pneumonia
- usually community acquired
- flouroquinolones
macrolides
penicillins
- pseudomonas
areginosa &
legionella
pneumophilia
- Bronchopneumonia
- hospital acquired
- treatment
- fluoroquinolones
- macrolides
- what is it
- form of acute
respiratory infection
- infection to the lungs
- inflammatory response initiated
- alveolar edema and exudate formation
- alveoli and respiratory bronchioles fill with
serous exudate, fibrin cells, blood, bacteria
- consolidation of lung tissues
- what does it cause?
- who is at risk?
- Being hospitalized
- Chronic disease
- Smoking
- Weakened or suppressed
immune system
