Sexually transmissible infections-clinical correlation-pop up version STI/STD AFFECTS MORE THAN JUST GENITALS Dr. P. K. Rajesh Clinical Microbiologist, April 2013
KNOW THE CORRECT FULL SPELLING, NO SHORT FORMS Learning outcomes At the end of these TWO lectures, the student should be able to name organisms causing STD and classify them into bacteria, virus, fungi, protozoa discuss the clinical syndromes commonly associated with STD explain the diagnostic protocol to be adopted depending on the presentation of the case interpret data scientifically and rationally act in a mature manner when anybody approaches them for counseling regarding STI or STD KNOW THE CORRECT FULL SPELLING, NO SHORT FORMS SAMPLE COLLECTION MICROSCOPY CULTURE MOLECULAR SEROLOGY ANTIGEN DETECTION
Sexually transmissible… STI is an infectious agent spread from person-to-person through 1) direct body contact 2) contact with infected body fluids; any disease acquired primarily through sexual contact is termed STD Today there are over 20 recognized STD
STD's are mostly CAUSED BY Bacteria gonorrhea, syphilis, chancroid, bacterial vaginosis, donovanosis (PID)- Mycoplasma, Chlamydia, LGV Virus genital herpes, molluscum contagiosum, (HPV - genital warts) (HIV/AIDS); hepatitis B,C. Fungi- candidiasis (thrush) Protozoa -trichomoniasis Insects-scabies, pediculosis pubis (Note all the above are disease names and not the agents name) PELVIC INFLAMMATORY DISEASE IF YOU ARE PLANNING TO BE A DOC DON’T IGNORE THIS SLIDE
The next three slides….. Contains an exhaustive list of organisms, recognized as being transmissible sexually. You do not have to “mug this up” The idea of showing this is to make you think of all possibilities when you deal with such a case. Concentrate on the organisms in bold IF YOU HAVE CUT THIS CLASS AND ARE PLANNING TO MUG MY PPT LATER-PLEASE MUG THIS UP
Disease Organism(s) Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV-1 and HIV-2) Bacterial vaginosis Bacteroides spp. Gardnerella vaginalis Mobiluncus spp. Mycoplasma hominis Ureaplasma urealyticum Chancroid Haemophilus ducreyi Chlamydial infections Chlamydia trachomatis Enteric infections Various Gram negative bacteria, Campylobacter fetus, Shigellasp., Escherichia coli, Salmonella sp. Amebiasis Entamoeba histolytica (protozoan) Giardiasis Giardia lamblia (protozoan)
Genital herpes Herpes simplex virus Genital (venereal) warts Venereal warts or condyloma acuminata Human papillomavirus Gonorrhea Neisseria gonorrhoeae donovanosis Calymmatobacterium granulomatis Group B streptococcal infections Streptococcus agalactiae Leukemia/Lymphoma/Myelopathy HTLV-I and II Lymphogranuloma venereum (LGV***) Chlamydia trachomatis Molluscum contagiosum Molluscum contagiosum virus
NGU or Nongonococcal urethritis* Chlamydia trachomatis, Gardnerella vaginalis, Ureaplasma urealyticum Pelvic Inflammatory Disease (PID)** N. gonorrhoeae- most common , Chlamydia trachomatis- most common, Anaerobic bacteria (ex. Bacteroides), Facultative Gram negative rods (ex. Escherichia coli), Mycoplasma hominis, Actinomyces israelii Pubic lice, Pediculosis Pediculus humanus and Phthirius pubic Scabies Sarcoptes scabiei var. hominis Syphilis Treponema pallidum Trichomoniasis Trichomonas vaginalis Vaginal yeast infections, Mycotic vulvovaginitis Candida albicans Viral hepatitis Hepatitis A,B, C, D
Common Pathogen Parade Virus Human immunodeficiency virus Hepatitis A,B, C, D Herpes simplex virus Human papillomavirus Bacteria Chlamydia trachomatis (ATYPICAL BACTERIA) Haemophilus ducreyi (GRAM NEGATIVE COCCOBACILLI) Treponema pallidum (SPIROCHETE) Neisseria gonorrhoeae (GRAM NEGATIVE COCCI) Fungi-Candida albicans Protozoa-Entamoeba histolytica Trichomonas vaginalis REMINDER ALL THESE ORGANISMS HAVE BEEN DEALT WITH BEFORE
Ok docs! plz note STD syndromes Major Ulcer Discharge Painful lymph nodes Minor Abdominal pain Rash THESE WILL BE THE COMMON SYMPTOMS A PERSON WITH STD PRESENTS WITH
CAN PRESENT IN OTHER WAYS TOO

Interpret this Gram stain GRAM STAIN OF DISCHARGE-SHOWS INTRACELLULAR DIPLOCOCCI NORMAL BACTERIAL FLORA-EXPECTED IN VAGINA
Gram positive bacilli- any clue? Or is it safety pin shaped
CURDY/CHEESY DISCHARGE-COULD BE CANDIDA-YOU WOULD SEE BUDDING YEASTS ON MICROSCOPY Say cheese- Candida albicans- BUDDING YEASTS
Candida albicans- budding yeasts with pseudohyphae
FROTHY DISCHARGE-TRICHOMONAS YOU CAN SEE ‘FALLING LEAF’ PROTOZOA ON WET MOUNT MICROSCOPY IN THE LOG BOOK OR OSPE DON’T ANSWER “ FOUL SMELLING’’ AS WE ARENT GIVING YOU THIS TO SMELL Frothy foul smelling- Trichomonas vaginalis
