|
|
Causes of left-sided heart failure
|
Ischemic heart disease, hypertension, aortic and mitral valvular disease, and myocardial diseases.
|
|
If LV is not pushing out,
|
the pressure will back up to the right ventrical and you will get secondary RV hypertrophy
|
|
Causes of right sided heart failure
|
left-sided heart failure; pure right-sided failure can occur associated with cor pulmonale, pulmonary hypertension, thromboembolism, chronic hypoxia
|
|
With right sided HHD by itself or (more commonly) left sides failure with it, the right vemtrical can't pump and
|
get backup on anything proximal to the r.s. heart. Backup of blood, unstressed volume increases backing up all the way to capillary beds
|
|
COPD - caused by
|
smoking. Pulmonary hypoxia causes constriction of pulmonary arteries - right side has to work harder
|
|
The worst thing that can happen in right side failure is pulmonary embolism (
|
acute cor pulmonale) which puts so much stain on the heart that it goes into fibrilation and you will die instantly
|
|
Ischemic heart disease
|
Heart not getting enough blood for one reason or another.Cardiac myocytes aren't getting oxygen.
|
|
IHD problems can be
|
Pain, MI (ischemic death of myocytes), stop beating, or CIHD
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Over the years, the coronary blood vessels can be constricted
|
Prinicipally the left anterior descending branch becomes obstructed causing angina, completely occlude, rupture and develop thrombus tha occludes
|
|
With CAD, if not complete ischemia
|
It is causing chronic ischemia to the heart, which causes CIHD generally leading to CHF and death by CFH. Not MI, heart simply is not getting enough oxygen.
|
|
If there is acute occlusion in heart
|
Necrosis of heart tissue, the surviving areas will become overworked, failure of LV, and ultimately death by CHF (if you survive the first 60 minutes)
|
|

|
Forties
|
|
MI annually
|
1.5 million
|
|

|
|
MI Occlusion in LAD
|
Devastating, if right coronary artery will be less sever
|
|

|
|
If you occlude circumflex
|
Get lateral infarction of LV
|
|
Right coronary artery

|
|
Stress
|
Equals catecholamines, this factor has gone out of favor in importance
|
|

morphology, Hemolysis on blood plate?, Biochemical reactions, carb util
|
|
Nucleic acid testing.
|
Target conserved sequences and it needs to be specific.
|
|
NA testing can
|
pick up organisms that grow really slowly or organisms that are very picky what they grow on…these are the preferred tests for those organisms.
|
|
Bordatella pertusis is detected by
|
molecular methods because it’s faster and more sensitive than doing cultures.

. Antigen Can also be done from stool for Clostridium difficile testing (antibiotics associated diarrhea)
|
|
Fungi resistance
|
Develop slowly, because grow slowly, resistance is intrinsic
|
|

|
Best know of the resistance, similar to other (fungi) resistance
|
|

|
|
When penicillin was formulated for human use
|
1939
|
|
Development of TB drugs
|
|
|
1940's - 1950's antibiotics
|
"age of antibiotics" Streptomycin, chloramphenicol, tetracycline, TB (isoniazid)
|
|

|
Immediately after iscovery of AB
|
|

|
|
Inhibitoors of replication
|
Fluoroquinolones - topoisomerase inhibitors
|
|
Antibiotic utilization and resistance
|
|
|
If treat organisms with pre-existing resistance
|
That subset survives and everything else dies - huge proliferation advantage
|
|
If spontaneous mutation occurs when treating with antibiotics
|
The mutation will be selected for due to the presence of the drug.
|
|
Non-lethal dose treatment of antibiotic
|
Like immunization, promotes exposure that slows them down and gives chance for some mutations to occur, and selection occurs.
|
|
Tolerizing
|
Allowing antibiotics to survive in presence of sub-lethal dose
|
|
Gene mutation and steps in acquisition of resistance
|
A few bacteria will mutate, the non-resistant bacterium will die off, all of the remaining will be resistant
|
|
Categories of mechanisms of resistance
|
Altered target, efflux pump, porin mutation (not allow drug to enter); inactivation (enzyme);
|
|
Resistance gene
|
Genes that allows change to take place and is selected for in presence of antibiotic
|
|

|
Bacteria take up by conjugation of just from their environment
|
|
Vertical transfer of resistance gene
|
By replication, daughter cell get gene
|
|
Chromosomal transfer of resistance

Beta-lactamase, tet, macrolide, aminogly, SXT, other
|
|
How to create resistance?
|
Give sub-lethal amount of drug, (that's how it's done in the lab) not finishing course of antibiotic
|
|
Resistance develops in patients by
|
Wrong dosing, imcomplete antibiotic course, taking a few pills from someone else (sub-lethal)
|
|
Increased use of antibiotic
|
Double edged sword - works well but frequent use increases resistence
|
|
When antibiotic is really good
|
It's used a lot, a lot is out there, and resistence develops. That's happening to fluoroquinolones
|
|
Antibiotics in animal feed
|
As growth supplement, increases level of antibiotics in environment, inducing cross resistence (suspected in VRE)
|
|
When you treat a respiratory bug , for example
|
pathogen being treated is not the only organism exposed - all orgs in the subject
|
|
Inappropriate use of antibiotics
|
Viral, bronchitis, self-limited infections

sequester large volumes of blood, whereas the arteries store energy.
|
|
The energy stored in the vessel walls moves blood along during

Neisseria meningitis. A type of bacterial meningitis. It’s very contagious and very virulent. You would give antibiotics immediately in ER before you do a lumbar puncture because they might die in hours. When you do spinal tap, you might have killed enough of organisms that you can’t grow anything (Might have to do molecular testing if that is the case)

Pseudomonas: kind of an environmental water bug. Has numerous ways to be resistant
|
|
|
Resistance develops under the pressure of antibiotics. Can be passed between bacteria.
|
|
|
Resistance genes are detected by molecular methods. It is these genes (pass around or inherited) that produce the changed cell wall feature or changed ribosome or that pump that allow organism to be resistant. Resistance is developed under the pressure of antibiotics.
|
|
|
Resistance mechanisms. Methicillin resistance. The MecA gene for MRSA. For VRE (Vancomycin resistant enterococci. That doesn’t work for a lot of because organisms have all kinds of ways to be resistant to antibiotics.

Tray (each well has a different concentration of the antibiotics) MIC is concentration where you can’t see growth anymore. It’s clear, not turbid.
|
|
|
You can do rapid diagnosis using nucleic acid amplification from a direct specimen. Often done for TB. Otherwise it could take weeks to diagnose. You need to trace contacts of patient and put patient in isolation.
|
|
|
You can use molecular methods to identify and characterize culture isolates. Sometimes something weird will grow. Send off to lab for sequencing. Lab will identify the organism.
|
|
|
You’re looking for the response mounted against the organism. You’re not looking for the organism itself (ideal way).
