|
TYPE 1 - IGE- Mediated Reactions
|
|
What can occur when mediators are releasted systemetically (after injection of drug, or insect sting) reaction occurs within minutes and can be life threatening because of bronchial constriction. airway obstruction, vascular collapse
|
anaphylaxis
|
|
ALLERGIES )
smooth muscles contraction - narrow airways - leaking of fluid from blood vessels, vasodialation, decreased blood pressure and increased mucus production and itching - are symptoms of |
IGE -Mediated Reactions
|
|
what kind of immunity occurs through injection with gamma globulin (Serum antibodies) - it is short lived bc the host did not make antibodies.
|
passive aquired immunity
ex) breastmilk |
|
what kind of immununity occurs naturally from a disease or artifcually through innoculation
|
active aquired immunity
|
|
what antigens attach to mast cells and basophills to trigger mediators to attack target organs causing allergy symptoms
|
IGE - Mediated Rxns
type 1 |
|
What kind of reaction is a type I - Ige Mediated Reaction
|
Anaphylaxis
Atopic Rxns |
|
what kind of rxn has an inherited tendency to become sensitive to environmental allergens
resulting in asthma, allergic rhnitis (hay fever) atopic dermatitis , uticaria (hives) |
atopic reaction
20 percent of population is atopic |
|
what occurs within minutes, quick systematic reaction. your PT highly sensitized to specific antigents. life threatening.
|
anaphlaxis
|
|
the direct binding of IgG or IGM to antigen on cell surface is called
|
Cytotoxic and Cytolytic Rxn
TYPE 2 |
|
A Classic type 2 rxn occurs when PT recievesABO-incompatible blood from donor
|
hemolytic transfusion rxn
|
|
what is the MSOT COMMON type 1 hypersensitivy reaction caused by airborne substances pollens dust molds .
|
allergic rhinitis or hay fever
|
|
disorder involving lungs and kidney - rapid progressive
|
goodpasture syndrome
|
|
what results in cell destruction, blood clots. activates immune system, target cells frequently involved include RBC, WBC-
this is a HEMOLYTIC TRANSFUSION RXN |
Cytotoxic and Cytolytic Rxn
TYPE 2 |
|
Your PT has edema, itching, headche, feeling of doom, nause, ab pain, this could prgress to shock (tachycardia, weak pulse, hypotension, dyspnea)
whats wrong? |
Anaphlaxis
|
|
Your PT has nasal discharge , sneezing, lacrimation, mucosal swelling with airway obstruction and pruritis around eyes nose and mouth - what is wrong with him
|
Allergic Rhinitis (hayfever)
|
|
antigen-antibody complexes too small to be removed by the immune system - coplexes deposit in tissues or small blood vessels - release toxic substances- result in infalammation and tissue ddestruction.
can be local/systemic, immediate or delayed |
Type 3 - Immune Complex RXN
|
|
cell mediated rxn - 24-48 hours AFTER stimulation - contact dermatitis and microbial rxn is known as
|
Type 4 - Delayed Hypersensitivity RXN
|
|
The bodys self-defense reaction against Tuberculosis - the test is read 48-72 hours after given -
coudl lead to an extreme response where you lose layers of skin |
microbial hypersensitivy rxn
|
|
Rx diagnosis for latex allergy response, impaired gas exchange and ineffective tissue perfusion fall under what category
|
altered immunose response
|
|
How do you treat your PT with an altered immune response deficiency?
|
Avoid allergens
Monitor Symptoms Adninister Meds Local Treatment Latex precaution |
|
what meds would you give your PT having an allergic rxn or altered immune response
|
antihistamines, decongestants, steroids, antipruritics
|
|
Your PT has a reaction associated with autoimmune disorders causing inflammation and destruction of tissue - site kidney , joint, bv, lungs.
what is wrong |
PT has a type 3- immune complex rxn
|

an example of a delayed hypersensitiy rxn involving the skin - rxn occurs when skin is exposed to substances that easily penetrate the skin to combine with epidermal proteins.

is the aspect of immunity that is mediated by secreted antibodies (as opposed to cell-mediated immunity which involves T lymphocytes) produced in the cells of the B lymphocyte lineage (B cell). Secreted antibodies bind to antigens on the surfaces of invading microbes (such as viruses or bacteria), which flags them for destruction.
