what are the intracellular bugs that cause respiratory things
whats the mnemonic for facultative intracellular |
1. Mycoplasm
2. Chlamydia (obligate) 3. Francisella 4. Legionella Some Nasty Bugs May Live FacultativeLy 1 Salmonella 2. Neisseria 3. Brucella 4. Mycobacterium 5. Listeria 4. Fransciella 5. Legionella |
|
DNA virus replicates where?
RNA virus replicates where? |
DNA- nucleus, except poxvirus
RNA- cytoplasm, except influenza and retrovirus |
|
what is croup
|
syndrome: hoarsness, fever, barking cough in 6-18 mo kids. Due to laryngotracheobronchitis- complication of URI, constricts the trachea due to laryngeal edema
PIV 1 PIV 2 RSV |
|
what commonly causes edema in the larynx as a complication of URI
|
PIV 1
PIV 2 RSV **causes in that order **its CROUP- hoarsness, fever, bark cough in 6 mo-18 mo |
|
tell me about the PIV
classificaiton genome envelope serotypes |
Paramyxovirus
NONSEGEMNTED - sense RNA *virion is enveloped with spikes **4 serotypes |
|
whats teh causative agent for croup
|
PIV 1 > PIV 2 >>>RSV
|
|
PIV is a paramyxovirus, what are 3 others
|
RSV
Measles Mumps |
|
whats the deal with PIV and an immune response
|
well its a non segmented RNA genome so it has a limited ability to make AG changes. so we should be able to to have a strong reaction and fight it. BUT what happens is you get immunity for like 20 years and then it wanes and as an adult you get a "cold" bc there is still some protection
|
|
we know there are 4 serotypes of PIV adn that 1 causes croup more often than 2 but what things make the serotypes different
|
1. Hemagglutinin and Neuroaminidase
2. Novel Fusion (F) protein that causes syntitia formation (fuse into one) |
|
how is PIV spread and what does it do in the body and what are the clinical manifestation
|
1. droplets from infected ppl
2. Virus replicates in the upper respiratory epithelium (turbinates and ciliated epithelium) and sits there for like 2-6 days and then causes sore throat, harsh cough, SOB, and CROUP!!! croup clues us in to possible PIV infection |
|
how does PIV manifest in kids?
Adults |
Kids: croup, fever, rhinitis, sore throat, SOB
Adults: upper respiratory tract infection |
|
what happens in immunocomprimised kids with PIV and RSV
what are 3 examples of immuno comprimised |
can get mroe severe, adn enter lower respiratory tract
**chemotherapy **BM recipients **adults with leukemia |
|
we know PIV causes croup and upper respiratory infection, waht are some other complications of it
|
1. Otitis Media- messes with pressure nad clearance from nasopharynx bacteria
2. Parotitis |
|
when do we see PIV/Croup
|
Fall adn Winter
**prevalent in kids!!!!!! |
|
do we get lifelong immunity with PIV infection
|
nope, it can be seen in adults but we dont get croup sx
- repeat infections are more mild |
|
whats a steeple sign
|
its constriction of the trachea that is seen in x ray
|
|
how is PIV dx
|
direct viral isolation culture from throat swabs, FAB test (
|
|
how is PIV tx, vaccien?
|
supportive
None vaccine |
|
what type of virus is RSV
|
paramyxovirus: - sense ssRNA
so are PIV, measles, mumbs, |
|
does RSV have hemaggluntinin and neuroaminidase
|
nope, RSV infects via G protein spike and does cell fusion with an F spike
Just PIV has these hemagglutinin and neurominidase |
|
what infects via G protein spike and dose cell fusion with F spike
|
RSV
PIV- uses hemagglutinin and neuroaminidase |
|
RSV causes what
|
a LOWER respiratory tract infection (revall PIV is in upper)
**common in infants/kids. can be fatal in infants |
|
why is RSV named as such
|
respiratory syntitial virus
**tendency to create syncytia in tissue culture (multinucleated giant cell) |
|
what are the stranis of RSV
|
**distinguished based on AG variation in the G protein (G does attachment)
A- predominates and causes more severe disease B |
|
how dose RSV manifest in Adults and infants
|
Adults/Older Kids: URI
InfantsL bronchiolitis, pneumonia, sometimes croup. can be fatal. Excess mucus, narrow/plug bronchi. fever cough dyspnea |
|
when do you expect RSV outbreaks
who is it prevalent in? how is it spread |
1. Winter
2. Young kids, adults can get reinfected. no lasting immunity- same was seen in PIV 3. PERSON to person contact, fomites |
|
what makes a kid more likely to get RSV
|
1. If they were born 6 months b4 RSV season (april-sept) no longer have moms AB
2. Has older siblings 3. Day care 4. Lives in crowded conditinos 5. Was not breast fed |
|
lets beat it to death
1. who gets RSV 2. When do they get it 3. tell me about adults nad RSV 4. spread/transmission |
1. Kids- by the time your are 4 its most likely youve had it
2. winter 3. they get it, dont get super sick and pass it to a baby 4. Person to person, fomites, direct contacts |
|
what is the most likely to introduce RSV to a babe
|
a preschool/school aged older sibling
|
|
what are 3 ways to dx RSV
|
1. Clinical presentation, a kid in the winter who may have croup
2. detection of viral AG- ELISA or immunofloursence. hard to culture must inoculate sample immediatly 3. Serology- 4x increase in AB titer |
|
how is RSV tx
|
can use antiviral ribavirin for severe cases
**typically just tx synptomatically |
|
what is ribavirin used for
|
its an anti viral used in severe cases of RSV
|
|
waht is the immunization for RSV like
|
non existant
**can have passive immunization in babues who are breast fed |
|
is it easy to prevent RSV
|
all of those snotty nose kids playing all over each other?! NO WAY!!!!
hand wash, etc |
|
what is a hemaglutinin test
|
there is Hemagglutinin in PIV (not RSV) so we can agglutinate the RBS with virus
|
|
RBC + VIRUS =
RBC + VIRUS + antiviral AB from Serum= |
hemagglutination
Hemagglutiniation inhibition (the virus binds to the AB and RBC are free) |
|
tell me about hemagglutinin inhibition
|
RBC Virus and antiviral AB from pt serum are all added and then the RBC DONT clump- the virus binds to the AB
**if blood doesnt clump the pt has AB to the virus |
|
in a hmaggluttin in hibition assay what does it mean if...
1. RBC in a button on bottom 2. RBC aggluninate into a mass |
1. it means there were antiviral AB present so the virus did NOT aggluniate the RBC
2. NO AB in serum, pt NOT infected |
|
what does it mean that you need to have a 4x increase in AB titer if infection was present
|
you need to have hemagglutination with a more dilute solution
|
|
what does the virus control look like for HI assay
|
RBC + VIRUS
hemagglutination |
|
what does the serum control look like for HI
|
Serum + RBC (no virus)
button, no agglutination |
|
what does the cell control look like for HI
|
RBC only
button, no agglutionation |
|
what is the control for HI, adn what will it look like
1. RBC only 2. Serum + RBC NO virus 3. Virus + RBC |
1. Cell control, button, no agglutination
2. Serum control, button, no agglunination 3. Virus control, hemagglutinination |
