Patho Final Review

• infection of the reproductive tract, particularly the fallopian tubes and ovaries
• sings/symptoms
• lower abd. pain, increases by walking,
• treatment
• aggresive treat with approprate antimicrobials (cefoxitin/doxycycline)

a contraceptive device, can cause PID

• bening tumor of the myometruim, cause is unkown
• symptoms
• heavy menstral flow, bleed btwn periods, pain, infertility

small fluid filled sacs that develop in ovaries casues pain if it bleeds or breaks

large ovaries covered with cyts, hormonal abnormalities include: elevated androgen, estrogen, LH and decreased FSH levels, dysfunction in the hypothalmic-pituitary control system

excessive hairiness manifests in young women

broad range of breast lesions, presence of nodules/masses in the breast tissue that change during the menstrual cycle

• only 25% is diagnost in early stages, poor prognosis "silent killer"
• early indications are feeling bloating, fullness, indigestion, frequent urination, backache, pain with intercourse

• recurrent infections are common
• careful testing/diag. to uncover 2nd infections are necessary
• are asymptomatic, particularly in women
• no cure in viral STD's
• more drug-resistant microorganisms increasing risks assosciated w/STD
• infection may be transmitted from mother to fetus
• partners of infected are difficult to notify/treat
• condoms not used correctly/edu progams not effective

probability for recovery

• objective indicators of disease that are obvious
• ex. fever, skin rash

• subjective feelings
• ex. pain, nausea

• abnormality of development
• tissue inwhich the cells vary in size/shape, large nuclei freq present

1 mature cell type is replaced by a different mature cell type

when a group of cells die

malignant tumor

causative factor in a particular disease

ex. vaccinations, dietary, lifestyle modifications

cond. that triggers an acute episode

• acute episode of cronic disease
• increase of severity of disease

• swelling
• erythema(redness)
• pain/tenderness

• fever
• leukocytosis
• elevated ESR
• fatigue

• decrease of WBC
• indicator of viral infection

phagocystic cells

cells that process and present antigents

B lymphocytes / B cells are responsible through production of antibodies and immunoglobulins

pathogens enter body and cause illness, antibodies form in host

vaccine injected into person

antibodies passed from mother to fetus

antibodies injected into person

• hay fever
• anaphylaxis

ABO blood incompatibility

• autoimmune disorders
• SLE
• glomerulonephritis
• RH

• contact dermatitis
• transplant rejection

• sever systemic allergic reaction
• critical situation because of systemic vasodialation
• develops rapitly and bronchio constriction

breaking down of blood cells if incorrect blood tranfussion occur

• individuals develops antibodies to their own cells or celllular material
• body attacks its self

T helper cells

without oxygen

with oxygen

hospital acuirred disease

time btwn entry of organism into body and appearance of clinical signs of diease

• icky feeling
• more evident in some infection than others

infection disease develops fully

HIV- virus only bodily fluids transfer

when bacteria has been weakened

basic guidelines by which all blood, body fluids and wastes are considered infected

• swelling
• warmth
• redness

• pain
• swelling

it acts against both gram+ and gram- bacteria

technique that will kill most everything

• increase WBC
• bacterial disease

lipoma

sarcoma

bening has relatively normal cells

based on differentiation of cells

malignant cells spreads

time btwn 1st day of last menstration cycle to birth

• vericose veins
• decrease resp
• increase urination freq

painless, vaginal bright red blood

sesation of all cardiac function

• sob
• swelling of ankle

elevated heart rate

decrease heart rate

most dangerous

increase vericose pressure

absorbs most nutritions

pancreatic fluid break down protien

• 70% oxygenated blood from portal vein
• only one to use oxy & unoxy to support function

increase notify and secreasons

failure for soft and hard palate to fuse

caused by intra-abd pressure
