2
Objectives Define Medical Terms List and Describe Mechanisms of disease and risk factors List and describe categories of pathogenic organisms Describe pathogenesis of cancer
3
Medical Terminology Microbiology Pathogens Parasites Host
4
Medical Terminology Vector Pathology Psychogenic Diagnosis
5
Medical Terminology Acute Chronic Signs Symptoms
6
Medical Terminology Syndrome Health Disease Etiology
7
Medical Terminology Idiopathic Pathogenesis Communicable Latent
8
Patterns of Disease Epidemiology Epidemiologist
9
Patterns of Disease Endemic Epidemics Pandemic
10
Patterns of Disease Discovering the cause of a disease is difficult because many factors affect disease transmission Disease can be fought through : Prevention Therapy
11
Patterns of Disease Pathophysiology
12
Mechanisms of Disease Genetic Pathogenic organisms Tumors/cancer Physical and chemical agents Malnutrition Autoimmunity Inflammation Degeneration
13
Genetic mechanisms Altered /mutated genes Abnormal disruptive function Threat to homeostasis
14
Pathogenic organisms Disease causing organisms Damage the body Parasite
15
Tumors/Cancer Neoplasms
16
Physical/chemical agents Toxic/destructive Extreme heat/cold Mechanical injury radiation
17
malnutrition Imbalance of nutrients
18
Autoimmunity Immune system attacks the body Mistakes Over-reactions
19
Inflammation Inflammatory response Disease occurs when inflammation occurs: At inappropriate times Is abnormally prolonged Is a severe response
20
Degeneration Tissues break apart Normal consequence of aging Occurs when one or more tissues degenerate resulting from disease
21
Risk factors Genetics Age Lifestyle Stress Environment Pre-existing conditions
22
Pathogenic organisms Viruses Bacteria Fungi Protozoa Pathogenic animals
23
Pathogenic organisms Humans get disease through accidental or intentional injury Microscopic Microbes: Bacteria Fungi protozoa
24
Pathogenic organisms Viruses Contains DNA Invade and insert genetic code Exocytosis
25
Pathogenic organisms Bacteria No nucleus Secrete toxins Become parasites inside cells Form colonies that disrupt normal cell function
26
Pathogenic organisms Bacteria classifications 1.Function Aerobic Anaerobic 2. Staining Properties Gram positive Gram negative
27
Pathogenic organisms Bacteria classifications 3.shape/size Bacilli Cocci (dip, strep, staph) Curved/spiral rods Obligate Spores
28
Pathogenic organisms Fungi Yeasts, molds
29
Pathogenic organisms Protozoa Amoeba Flagellates Ciliates Sporozoa
30
Pathogenic organisms Metazoa Nematodes Platyhelminths Arthropods
31
Prevention/control Person to person Environmental Opportunistic invasion Transmission by a vector
32
Prevention/control aseptic methods of prevention Sterilization Disinfection Antisepsis Isolation
33
Prevention/control TX strategies Vaccination Antibiotics natural/synthetic
34
Tumors/cancer Neoplasms Benign Malignant Hyperplasia Anaplasia
35
Tumors/cancer malignant tumors Sarcomas Lymphomas Osteosarcoma Myeloma Fibrosarcoma Metastisis Carcinomas Adenocarcinoma
36
Tumors/cancer benign tumors Pappilloma Adenoma Nevus Lipoma Osteoma Chondroma
37
Causes of CA Genetics Carcinogens Age Environment viruses
38
CA Forms of CA Warning signs Methods of detection Outcomes Tx options
39
Inflammation Redness Heat Pain Swelling
40
Inflammation Inflammation mediators Inflammatory exudate Chemotaxis Phagocytosis fever
