Wound infections

A wound is damaged or breaks in the surface of the skin. The wound is divided into two types, they are acute wound that includes minor cuts, laceration, bites, etc, and chronic wounds that can become slow to heal including ulcers on the legs and feet. Redness, pain, and swelling are signs of a wound.

Some bacteria produce the enzyme penicillinase, which breaks the beta-lactam ring in the penicillin molecule and converts it into penicilloic acid, which is harmless to bacteria. This is an example of which of the following mechanisms of antibiotic resistance? which option below is the answer? Destruction or inactivation of the antibiotic by the microbe Preventing penetration to the target site within the microbe Alteration of the drug’s target site(s) within the microbe None of the other four answers are correct Rapid ejection (pumping) of the drug out of the microbial cell
Please put the following types of organisms/pathogens into the correct order based on their resistance to general antimicrobial compounds. The MOST resistant description will be #1 and the LEAST resistant description will be #4. Gram positive bacteria Mycobacteria (contain mycolic acids/waxy lipids) Gram negative bacteria Endospores
An antimicrobial agent shows selective toxicity when specifically: An antimicrobial agent is said to exhibit selective toxicity when it specifically: Select one: O does not induce the development of resistant strains of microorganisms O kills or destroys many species of microorganisms O kills or inhibits the microorganism with minimal or no damage to host cells O penetrates rapidly into host cells and tissues O does not interfere with host defense microorganisms
Mycobacterium tuberculosis microbes are not easily killed by sunlight or drying. This is because this microbe forms spores as a protective mechanism. True False
As an illustration, a patient undergoing a laparoscopic-assisted vaginal hysterectomy (LAVH) procedure under general anesthesia might be happier not to know the numbers of portals of entry for potential transmission of pathogenic microbes to which she will be subjected. The anesthesia provider would be accessing the patients airway and vascular system by an IV line. Which portals of entry will the surgeon be accessing?
Define the following terms: Principle of Totality Mutilation Sterilization Plastic surgery Organ Transplantation
Below are a list of virulence factors/ strategies paired with an example of an organism that utilizes them. How do each of the following strategies contribute to the virulence of the pathogen? Strategy - Causes the host to produce more receptors (Organism - Rhinovirus) Strategy - Produces gas as a product of fermentation (Organism - Clostridium perfringens) Strategy - Produces a capsule (organism - Klebsiella pneumonia) Strategy - Ability to move between adjacent cells (organism - Cytomegalovirus) Strategy - Ability to use pilus as a motility structure (organism - Pseudomonas aerogenosa)
Which one of these antibiotics is active only against gram-positive bacteria? Azithromycin Ampicillin Amikacin Linezolid A
Microbes possess many different strategies to help them cause disease called virulence factors. Explain how two virulence factors work. For each virulence factor state the name of the mechanism, explain how it works and what advantage it gives the organism that helps it cause disease.
Differentiate among the following factors of bacterial intoxification and bacterial infection Bacterial Intoxification Bacterial Infection Prerequisite conditions Causative agents Onset Duration of symptoms Treatment
You work at a clinic educating women on sexually transmitted infections. All of the ents following apply to Chlamydia trachomatis infections EXCEPT 7 O Reticulocyt body (RB) asymptomatic infections that may lead to chronic pelvic pain and infertility -Hll O Direct contact transmission by the reticulocyte body (RB) Binary fission by the reticulocyte body (RB) Recordings O Secretion of exoenzymes by the reticuolycyte body (RB) O Uptake of the elementary body (EB) by the urpgenital tract epithelial cell
Identifying an unknown bacterium is an essential step in the diagnosis and treatment process. Since not every antibiotic is effective against every type of bacteria, knowing what caused a particular infection allows us to make correct prescriptions so patients can recover more quickly. Knowing the cause of an infection also prevents antibiotic resistance as well, since incorrect prescriptions allow bacteria to be unnecessarily be exposed to antibiotics, increasing the chances of developing resistance.
