INFECTIOUS DISEASE CASE STUDY 14 - Clostridium During World War 1, soldiers injured in battle often died of then-untreatable Clostridium infections. Initial infection was usually Staphylococcus or Streptococcus. Since antibiotic therapy was not available, these initial infections might be successfully treated topically only to be replaced by one of the Clostridium organisms, usually with fatal outcomes. (A) In the first, symptoms usually occur within ten days. Initial symptoms are restlessness, irritability, and muscular stiffness in the jaw, neck, or limbs. Muscle spasms increase, leading to clenched jaws, and stiff and arched (hyperextended) back and neck. (B) The second can develop rapidly, especially in poorly-oxygenated tissues. Typically, pain intensifies. The affected area blackens and begins to atrophy. The necrosis (death of soft tissue or bone) spreads from the site. The wound often produces a pungent, gaseous odor. Systemic effects include high fever, delirium, and shock. Laboratory Diagnosis Laboratory analysis of the affected tissue often yields such a variety of microbes that a definitive isolation of the causative agent is difficult to impossible. However, when isolation is successful, the first (A) is seen as a thin bacillus with round terminal (at the end of the cell) endospores. It produces a thin spreading veil of growth over a blood agar plate, incubated anaerobically, indicating mobility. The second (B) is a large, non-motile, encapsulated bacillus. Spores are rarely seen in culture. The colonies develop rapidly and are characterized by both complete and incomplete hemolysis of blood agar in anaerobic incubation. (Extra note: This microbe has a generation time as short as 7 minutes!)

Some microorganisms like Staphylococcus, Streptococcus, Yersinia pestis, E. coli can cause diseases of different body systems. Let's investigate how the same pathogen is responsible for different pathophysiological symptoms. First, choose a microorganism found in multiple systems. Then, describe your pathogen's role in disease for one body system: report the disease caused, the normal function of that system, pathophysiological symptoms, and the virulence factor(s) that contribute(s) to the diseased state. or Viral skin diseases like smallpox were among the first diseases to be eradicated through vaccination programs, but now we see more outbreaks of measles, mumps, and polio diseases for which we have vaccinations. Why do you think some diseases are appearing again? What is your understanding about diseases like malaria and Ebola, and can we eradicate these through vaccination programs? What is the role of CDC in controlling the spread of these communicable diseases and their treatment?

00:01 Okay, i'll say we're going to be talking about gangrene.
00:09 So let's go and see which ones are true.
00:12 So a gang green can be prevented by immunization of high -risk individuals that is false.
00:19 Because gang green is when there is, when that doesn't flow to a certain area...
