22
Q

what are some routes of microbial entry

A

inhalation
injection 
across mucous mem
into ear 
transplacental
23
Q

what kind of bac can be ingested

24
Q

what kind of bac can be inhaled

25
what kind of bac can be injected
Hep b
26
can reservoirs change
can vary during the course of a disease
27
what is an exogenous bac
infective material derived from outside patients body
28
what is endogenous
bac/fungi part of natural microbiota commensal | change in natural flora
29
what are some infections from exogenous bac
TB - myco - humans Pneumonia - legionella - soil/water Tetanus - clostridium tetani - soil
30
what bac present when burns or wounds
s aureus | p aeruginosa
31
what bac present when bowel rupture
bacteriodes fraigils
32
when is there a normal presence of foreign body
prosthesis catheters absence of shedding surface an form of biofilms
33
what are some key points on biofilms
``` multi cellular community 3D interfaces water channels resistant to antimicrobial agents and host defences ```
34
what si the way a bacteria can go to the incorrect site
heatogenuos spread
35
what can suppress immune system
cancer therapy immune suppression reduced Abs
36
what are some exogenous infections pathogens
influenza - destroy line of resp tract | AIDS immune suppression
37
antibiotics can disrupt what microflora
natural flora c albicans c difficile
38
what are the factors in establishing disease
dose of infectious agent virulence of organisms seusceptitbitly/ resistance of host
39
give a summary of pathogenesis
``` source microbe escape form source spread to new host entry into host infection of host damage to host ```
40
what is primary sources of dental practice
resp trat and muht | secretions saliva and blood
41
what is the secondary source of dental practise
surgery equipment | drill mirror
42
what are some challenges faced by pathogenic bac in water
``` low temp low nutrient pH neutral oxygen available resp metab free iron available adhesins stick to rocks ```
43
what re some challenges faced by pathogenic bac in humans
``` higher temp 37C energy higher low pH then higher low or no oxygen fermentative metab iron bound to harm adhesions stick to cells expo to bile salts ```
44
what do endogenous microbes do to survive
adapt to host and adhered more likely to poise a threat
