    EPIDEMIOLOGY

    Affected patients' age in Indonesia between3-19 years to reach 91% of cases .Typhoid fever is common in developingcountries, but fewer than 400 cases arereported in the U.S. each year.Most cases in the U.S. are brought in from

    other countries where typhoid fever iscommon.

    ETIOLOGY

    The bacteria that cause typhoid fever -- S.typhi -- spread through contaminated food,drink, or water .

    If you eat or drink something that iscontaminated, the bacteria enter your body.They travel into your intestines bloodstream

    lymph nodes, gallbladder, liver, spleen, and

    other parts of the body. A few people can become carriers of S.typhi and continue to release the bacteria intheir stools for years, spreading the disease.

    Transmission

    S typhi has no nonhuman vectors . Thefollowing are modes of transmission:

    Oral transmission via food or beverages handled by

    an individual who chronically sheds the bacteriathrough stool or, less commonly, urineHand-to-mouth transmission after using acontaminated toilet and neglecting hand hygiene

    Oral transmission via sewage-contaminated wateror shellfish (especially in the developing world)

    Non pharmacology

    Bed rest and treatment to prevent complication and make healing faster

    Bed rest , having meal, drink, take a bath, stools

    Once in the care need ,should taking care of cleanliness of the bed, clothes,

    and equipment in useDiet and supporting therapy

    Some researchers show that solved food (rice with side dish low cellulose) is

    safe for patient

    Surgical Care

    Surgery is usually indicated in intestinal perforation cases.

    Most surgeons prefer simple closure of the perforation with drainage of the

    peritoneum.

    Small-bowel resection is indicated for patients with multiple perforations.

    PREVENTION

    Vaccines are recommended for travel outside of theU.S., Canada, northern Europe, Australia, and NewZealand, and during epidemic outbreaks.If you are traveling to an area where there is typhoidfever, ask your health care provider if you should bringelectrolyte packets in case you get sick.Immunization is not always completely effective andat-risk travelers should drink only boiled or bottledwater and eat well-cooked food . Studies of an orallive attenuated typhoid vaccine are now under wayand appear promising.Water treatment, waste disposal, and protectingthe food supply from contamination are importantpublic health measures. Carriers of typhoid must not

    be allowed to work as food handlers.

    EPIDEMIOLOGI

    Shigella infection easily occur in denselypopulated, poor sanitation, lack of water,and low levels of personal hygiene.

    Shigella infection in endemic area is 10-15%cause of diarrhea in children.Number of bacteria to cause disease are

    relatively few, it ranged between 10-100germs.Therefore it is very easy transmission isfecal-oral route , either by direct contact ordue to contaminated food and drink

    MICROBIOLOGY

    Shigella including enterobacteriaceae group,which is gram negative , facultative anaerobesand very similar to eschericia coli.

    Several properties that distinguish the bacteriawith E. coli are bacteria do not stir it active , donot produce gas in glucose media and ingeneral negative lactose .

    Known 4 shigella species with differentserotypes namely: S. dysenteriae (12 serotypes),S. flexneri (14 serotypes), S. boydii (15serotypes), and S. sonnei (1 serotypes)

    PATHOPHISIOLOGY

    After passing through the stomach and smallintestine the bacteria invade the colonicmucosal epithelial cells and proliferate in it.Expansion of the invasion of bacteria into thesurrounding cells through a mechanism of cell-to-cell transfer

    Although the initial lession occurs in the epitheliallayer but the local inflammatory response thataccompanies severe enough, involving PMNleukocytes and macrophages.It causes edema, mikroabses, loss of goblet cells,damage to tissue architecture and mucosalulceration.

    CAUSES INCIDENCE RISK

  • 8/12/2019 PROBLEM 3 -VARLA.pptx

    43/75

    CAUSES, INCIDENCE, RISKFACTORS

    Cholera is caused by the bacterium Vibr io cho lerae . The bacteria releases a toxin that causes increased release of water in theintestines, which produces severe diarrhea.Cholera occurs in places with poor sanitation, crowding, war, andfamine .Common locations for cholera include :

    Africa AsiaIndiaMexicoSouth and Central America

    People get the infection by eating or drinking contaminated food orwater .

    A type of vibrio bacteria also has been associated with shellfish, especiallyraw oysters.Risk factors include:

    Exposure to contaminated or untreated drinking waterLiving in or traveling to areas where there is cholera

    TREATMENT

    The objective of treatment is to replace fluidand electrolytes lost through diarrhea .Depending on your condition, you may be

    given fluids by mouth or through a vein(intravenous).Antibiotics may shorten the time you feel ill.The World Health Organization (WHO) has

    developed an oral rehydration solution thatis cheaper and easier to use than thetypical intravenous fluid .This solution of sugar and electrolytes isnow being used internationally.

    PREVENTION

    The U.S. Centers for Disease Control andPrevention does not recommend choleravaccines for most travelers. (Such a vaccine

    is not available in the United States.)Travelers should always take precautionswith food and drinking water, even ifvaccinated .When outbreaks of cholera occur, effortsshould be directed toward establishing cleanwater, food, and sanitation , because

    DEFINITION

    Gastroenteritis is a condition that causesirritation and inflammation of the stomachand intestines (the gastrointestinal tract).

    An infection may be caused by bacteria orparasites in spoiled food or unclean water .The severity of infectious gastroenteritisdepends on your immune systems ability toresist the infection.Electrolytes (these include essential elementsof sodium and potassium) may be lost as youvomit and experience diarrhea.

  • 8/12/2019 PROBLEM 3 -VARLA.pptx

    52/75

    CAUSES

    Viruses and bacteria are the most common.Viruses and bacteria are very contagious and canspread through contaminated food or water.Gastroenteritis caused by viruses may last 1-2 days .On the other hand, bacterial cases can last a weekor more .Bacteria:

    Escherichia coli - Travelers diarrhea, food poisoning,

    dysentery, colitis, or uremic syndromeSalmonella - Typhoid fever; handling poultry orreptiles such as turtles that carry the germsCampylobacter - Undercooked meat, unpasteurizedmilkShi ella - D senter

    53/75

    Viruses :Viral outbreaks (30-40% of cases in children) canspread rapidly through close contact amongchildren in day care and schools.Poor handwashing habits can spread viruses.Common viral causes include the following:

    AdenovirusesRotavirusesCaliciviruses

    AstrovirusesNorovirus (formerly called Norwalk-like virus orNLV) and Norwalk virus

    SELF CARE AT HOME

    Dehydration in children :Children should be given oral rehydration solutions suchas Pedialyte, Rehydrate, Resol, and Rice-Lyte.

    Cola, tea, fruit juice, and sports drinks will not correctly replacefluid or electrolytes lost from diarrhea or vomiting.

    After each loose stool, children younger than 2 years shouldbe given 1-3 ounces of any of the rehydration solutions. Olderchildren should be asked to drink 3-8 ounces. Adults shoulddrink as much as possible.In underdeveloped nations or regions without availablecommercial pediatric drinks, the World Health Organization

    has established a field recipe for fluid rehydration : Mix 2tablespoons of sugar (or honey) with teaspoon of table saltand teaspoon of baking soda. (Baking soda may besubstituted with teaspoon of table salt.) Mix in 1 liter (1 qt) ofclean or previously boiled water.You will need solid foods eventually to help end the diarrhea.

    After 24 hours, begin to offer bland foods with the BRATdiet bananas, rice, applesauce without sugar, toast, pasta, or

    Dehydration in adults : Although adults and adolescents have a largerelectrolyte reserve than children, electrolyte

    imbalance and dehydration may still occur as fluidis lost through vomiting and diarrhea.Initially, adults should eat ice chips and clear,noncaffeinated, nondairy liquids such as

    Gatorade, ginger ale, fruit juices, and Kool-Aid orother commercial drink mixes. After 24 hours of fluid diet without vomiting, begina soft-bland solid diet such as the BRAT diet .

    PREVENTION

    With most infectious germs, the key is to blockthe spread of the organism.

    Always wash your hands.Eat properly prepared and stored food.Bleach soiled laundry.Vaccinations for Salmonella typhi, Vibrio cholerae ,and rotavirus have been developed.For lactose intolerance, supplementary enzymes are

    available over-the-counter for adolescents and adultsto aid digestion of milk sugars.Soy formulas and other lactose-free products areavailable from most grocery stores for formula-feedinginfants.

  • 8/12/2019 PROBLEM 3 -VARLA.pptx

    66/75

    CAUSE, INCIDENCE, RISKFACTORS

    Four different dengue viruses are known to cause denguehemorrhagic fever.Dengue hemorrhagic fever occurs when a person catches adifferent type dengue virus after being infected by another onesometime before.Prior immunity to a different dengue virus type plays an importantrole in this severe disease.Worldwide, more than 100 million cases of dengue fever occurevery year.

    PREVENTION

    There is no vaccine available to preventdengue fever.Use personal protection such as full-coverage

    clothing, netting, mosquito repellent containingDEET, and if possible, travel during periods ofminimal mosquito activity.Mosquito abatement programs can alsoreduce the risk of infection.

    Such as upper respiratory tract infection. Abrupt onset

    coryza.

    No rose spots, no enlargement of liver & spleen.

    The course of illness no more than 2 weeks.

    Differential diagnosis depends on typical manifestationsand blood culture.

    Malaria

    History of exposure to malaria.

    Paroxysms(often periodic) of sequential chill,high fever
