Infectious Diseases

Infectious diseases are diseases which can pass from one person to another by different ways: through the nose and mouth, simply by touch, through the blood, etc.

A person who has any infectious disease must be isolated immediately. The main task of medical workers is to prevent the spread of infection.

All infectious diseases are caused by specific microorganisms which may be revealed by bacteriological tests: for example, typhoid bacilli are found in the blood, stool; in enteric fever they are sometimes found in the urine; meningococci are found in the blood and cerebrospinal fluid in meningitis.

Today such diseases as the plague, cholera, malaria and others have been stamped out altogether in our country.

It is important to say that such infectious disease as scarlet fever may have a sudden onset; however in others, such as enteric fever, the onset may be gradual. Prodromal symptoms appear earlier than the characteristic features, and generally it is difficult to make a diagnosis in the initial stages of the disease.

A sore throat, a running nose, cough, high temperature may occur among the most characteristic local symptoms. Many diseases are accompanied by rash. Special attention should be paid to the type of the rash, its color, distribution and whether it is associated with itching or not. Abdominal infectious diseases may cause diarrhea. Only in certain individuals natural immunity to infectious diseases may exist. An artificial immunity results from prophylactic vaccination, which is carried out against a number of infectious diseases.

If nurses look after patients who have any infectious disease, they must:

  • prevent the spread of infection;

  • wear a mask and a special gown;

  • wash hands carefully after visiting infectious patients;

  • disinfect bedclothes after use;

- remember that a good bedside manner and hearty attitude is an effective medicine (ліки).

III. Independent Work: Bacteria

Exercise 1. Read the text.

Bacteria

Bacteria are single-celled organisms of minute size and simple structure. They are usually less than one thousandth of a millimeter in diameter. They differ in shape and are named accordingly. Cocci are small round cells which arrange themselves in different patterns; bacilli are rod-shaped; vibrios are curved rods or comma-shaped; spirochaeta are thin filaments which form spirals. Bacteria contain no formed nucleus and reproduce by simple division. Some are mobile, a property which is due to the movement of protoplasmic processes.

For growth bacteria require an adequate amount of water. Some grow best in air but a few are unable to grow in the presence of free oxygen. Their growth rate is dependent on temperature, each species having its own optimum. In general, cold inhibits growth rate whereas above the optimum their properties change and at still higher temperatures they are destroyed. Their food requirements vary. They are widely spread in nature and are found in the atmosphere, in soil and in water. Some can live and derive sustenance from soil and air but others require organic material and by their action cause putrefaction.

Of a large number of species very few are responsible for a disease in the human being and those that are usually have stricter requirements as regards their living conditions and nutrition. They can be grown in the laboratory on a number of different substances; for example, gelatine, malt extract, solutions of different sugars.

Of the bacteria which are responsible for a disease - known as pathogenic - a few will produce, when grown in a test tube, a highly poisonous substance or toxin which if injected will cause in the body many symptoms of that disease. Other bacteria, while not secreting a toxin, are in themselves poisonous; their toxin only becomes manifested when the killed organisms are injected or when they are killed in the body in the course of disease.
