Introduction Our bodies are amazing structures that defend us against infections under normal circumstances. You will learn: n n n About disease causing microorganisms. How the body fights against disease. Ways infections occur You can be instrumental in helping to break the cycle of infection by practicing asepsis in the office and educating patients in the prevention of disease transmission. 6
History of Infectious Disease Prevention q Hippocrates – first attempt to prevent infection. He believed: n Environment and natural forces play an important part in role of disease and health n Simple treatments, using strong drugs and surgery only as a last resort. 7
Joseph Lister q q Discovered how to use chemical antiseptics to control surgery related infections Used antiseptics to disinfect surgical equipment and supplies Microorganisms are simple forms of life commonly made up of a single cell only seen with a microscope. 8
Holmes and Semmelweis Holmes q Demonstrated that puerperal fever was carried from patient to patient by doctors. Semmelweis q Also concluded puerperal fever was a communicable disease. 9
Microorganisms live all around us. o o o Viruses – smallest infectious agent Bacteria – single celled reproduced quickly Protozoans – single celled found in soil (most do not cause disease) Fungi – complex cell structure (most do not cause disease) Parasites – cause disease 10
Disease Process q q q Begins with q Damage is caused microorganisms by: finding host n Depleting nutrients n Reproducing Grows with specific themselves requirements n Making body cells Proper temperature, the target of body’s p. H, and moisture level own defenses n Produce toxins 11
Body’s Defenses q Immunity – resistant to pathogens and the disease they cause If defenses are not functioning properly, person will become susceptible to invasion and infection. o Lines of Defense q § § § Skin Normal flora Staying healthy 12
Defenses Against Disease q q q Nonspecific Defenses Infection is the presence of a o Species resistance pathogen in or on the o Mechanical body barriers Nonspecific defenses o Chemical barriers mechanisms to o Fever protect us against o Inflammation pathogens in general o Phagocytosis 13
Specific Defenses Against Disease q q Lymphocytes and macrophages are Protects the body the major cells against very specific pathogens q Antibodies and complement are the major proteins involved in specific defenses Immunity n 14
Apply Your Knowledge What are three lines of defense against microorganisms? 15
Apply Your Knowledge -Answer What are three lines of defense against microorganisms? Lines of Defense o Skin o Normal flora o Staying healthy 16
Types of Immunity q q Naturally acquired active – naturally exposed to an antigen (usually long lasting) Artificially acquired – being injected with a pathogen (immunizations or vaccines) Naturally acquired passive – immunity through his mother (short-lived) Artificially acquired passive – immunity when person is injected with antibodies (short-lived) 17
T Cells Helper T cells o increase antibody formation, memory cell formation, B cell formation, and phagocytosis Memory T cells o o memory cells “remember” the pathogen that activated the original T cell person is later exposed to the same pathogen, memory cells trigger an immune response that is more effective than the first immune response 18
Cell-Mediated Immunity Two major types of lymphocytes B Cells and T Cells Recognize antigens in the body B cells: Respond to antigens by becoming plasma cell make antibodies against the specific antigen T Cells: Cell-mediated bind to antigens on cells and attack them directly 19
Cycle of Infection A reservoir host –animal, insect or human body where pathogen is growing (carrier, unaware of presence of pathogen) Means of exit – pathogen must exit the host n Nose, mouth, eyes or ears n Feces or urine n Semen, vaginal fluid or other reproductive discharge n Blood or blood products Click for Cycle of Infection 20
Cycle of Infection (cont. ) Means of transportation – must spread to another host by some means of transmission Vectors – living organisms, insects or person Fomites – inanimate objects such as clothing, water, food n n n Airborne transmission Blood-borne transmission Ingested transmission Touching During pregnancy or birth Click for Cycle of Infection 21
Cycle of Infection (cont. ) Means of Entrance Enter through any cavity lined with mucous membrane n n Mouth, nose, vagina, rectum Through ears, eyes, intestinal tract, urinary tract, reproductive tract, breaks in the skin Click for Cycle of Infection 22
Cycle of Infection (cont. ) Susceptible Host determined by: q q q Age Genetic predisposition Nutritional status Disease process Stress levels Hygiene habits Click for Cycle of Infection 23
Cycle of Infection (cont. ) Back 24
Apply Your Knowledge What are fomites? 25
Apply Your Knowledge -Answer What are fomites? Fomites are inanimate objects such as clothing, water, food that serve as a means of transportation for microorganisms. 26
Break the Cycle q Asepsis – condition in which pathogens are absent or controlled q q q Maintain strict housekeeping standards Adhering to government guidelines to protect against disease Educating patients in hygiene, health promotion and disease prevention 27
Medical Asepsis Clean technique - based on maintaining cleanliness to prevent spread of microorganisms Keep office clean: q q q Reception room clean, well lit, and ventilated Keep furniture in good repair Strict “no food or drink” policy 28
Medical Asepsis (cont. ) Handwashing q q q Beginning of day After breaks Before and after each patient Before and after handling equipment or specimens After blowing your nose or coughing 29
Medical Asepsis (cont. ) Sanitization – reduction of the number of microorganisms Disinfection – destruction of infectious agents on an object Sterilization – removal of all microorganisms 30
Surgical Asepsis q q q Keep the surgical environment completely free of all microorganisms. Sterile technique used for even minor operation or injections. Object is either sterile or not sterile; if unsure then it is not sterile. 31
OSHA Bloodborne Pathogens Standards q q q Written OSHA Exposure Control Plan must be created and updated annually Training must be provided to all employees as mandated by the standard that includes use of PPE. Employees must take hepatitis B vaccine or decline in writing. 32
Hazardous Waste Operation & Emergency Response Final Rule Hazardous waste products include: q Blood and blood products q Body fluids and tissue q Cultures q Vaccines q Sharps q Gloves q Specula q Inoculating loops q Paper product contaminated with body fluids 33
Universal Precautions Use universal blood and body fluid precautions for: q Blood and blood products q Human tissue q Semen and vaginal secretions q Saliva from dental procedures q Cerebrospinal, synovial, pleural and other body fluids 34
Standard Precautions Combination of Universal Precautions and rules to reduce the risk of disease transmission. o. Applies to: q q Blood All body fluids, secretions, and excretions except sweat Nonintact skin Mucous membrane 35
OSHA Routine Safeguards Category I Tasks: Those that expose a worker to blood, body fluids, or tissue or those that have a chance of spills or splashes. (Always wear specific protective measures) o Category II Tasks: o Do not usually involve risk of exposure Category III Tasks: o Do not require special protection 36
Personal Protective Equipment Employers must provide personal protective equipment (PPE) at no charge to the employee. q Disposable, sterile, exam & utility gloves q Masks and protective eyewear or face shields q Protective clothing 37
Postprocedure Cleanup OSHA required steps: o q q Decontaminate all exposed surfaces Replace protective coverings on surfaces or equipment Decontaminate receptacles q Pick up any broken glass with tongs q Discard all potentially infectious waste materials 38
Apply Your Knowledge The physician is going to remove a small growth from your patient’s back. In order to prepare for this procedure what steps would you take to prevent the spread of infection? 39
Apply Your Knowledge -Answer The physician is going to remove a small growth from your patient’s back. In order to prepare for this procedure what steps would you take to prevent the spread of infection? Use medical asepsis while preparing the patient and then use surgical asepsis during the procedure. Follow all CDC and OSHA rules for the prevention of infection and disease. 40
Exposure Incidents q q q A worker has reason to believe that he has come in contact with a substance that may transmit infection Notify physician or employer Employer must offer free medical evaluation Testing for HBV if not immunized Postexposure evaluation with written report 41
Educating Patients q q q Stress basic principles of hygiene and disease prevention Handwashing Daily hygiene Use tissues when coughing or sneezing Routinely disinfect rooms at home 42
Educating Patients (cont. ) You will teach patient about: q Nutrition and diet q Exercise and weight control q Prevention of sexually transmitted disease q Smoking cessation q Proper use of medications q Stress reduction techniques 43
Your Role in Patient Education Remember the following factors when providing education: q Psychological and lifestyle factors q Patient’s age and family circumstances q Disease and disorders q Patient’s psychological condition q Remind patient to eat healthfully 44
