WORKSHEET 3: Discussion Questions and Answers
3.4 Discussion Questions
1. Define and explain the differences between incidence and prevalence.
Answer: The incidence of a disease is the number of new cases of a disease in a population. Tracking incidences, patterns are revealed, as when influenza incidences increase in winter. Prevalence is the number of existing cases of a disease, which tells how significant the disease is in a certain population.
2. Define and explain the differences between endemic, epidemic, and pandemic.
Answer: When a disease always occurs at low levels in a population, that disease is said to be endemic. Sexually transmitted diseases are endemic diseases. If a disease occurs in unusually large numbers over a specific area, it is said to be epidemic. Influenza occurs as an epidemic. When an epidemic has spread to include several areas worldwide, it is said to be pandemic. HIV/AIDS is considered to be pandemic.
3. Define and explain the differences between horizontal transmission and vertical transmission.
Answer: Horizontal transmission describes transmission of an infectious disease from a reservoir to a susceptible human. Examples include kissing, engaging in sexual contact, or being bitten by an infected animal or insect. Vertical transmission are infectious diseases that are transmitted from one generation to the next, as when syphilis, HIV/AIDS, or ophthalmia neonatorum are transmitted to newborns from infected mothers.
4. Explain why healthcare facilities are a major reservoir for pathogens.
Answer: A weakened patient is an ideal target for an opportunistic pathogen. A patient's resistance to an infection can be reduced as a result of disease or compromised immunity. Burns, surgical wounds, injections, invasive diagnostic procedures, ventilators, intravenous therapy, and catheters increase the risk of infection. The principal routes of nosocomial infections are contact with healthcare staff, contaminated instruments, and through a hospital’s ventilation system.
5. Give a brief description of prions, viruses, and bacteria.
Answer: Prions are infectious agents composed of only proteins. All known prion diseases affect the structure of the brain or other neural tissue. Viruses are infectious particles with a core of genetic material (either RNA or DNA) wrapped in a protein coat called a capsid. Viruses are not considered living organisms because they do not independently grow, metabolize, or reproduce. Bacteria are single-celled organisms with no nucleus or membranous organelles. There are many different forms of bacteria, such as bacilli, spirilla, spirochetes, or vibrios.
6. Give a brief description of protozoa, fungi, and helminths.
Answer: Protozoa are single-celled, nucleus-containing microorganisms. Protozoa are much larger than bacteria and have complex internal structures. Types of protozoa include amoeboids, flagellates, ciliates, and sporozoans. Fungi can be single-celled or multi-celled organisms. They have a reproductive structure bearing spores, which are known allergens. Fungal infections are known as mycoses. Many mycoses are opportunistic infections. Helminths are parasitic worms and are complex, multicellular organisms. They often have well-developed reproductive systems capable of producing large numbers of offspring. Infections with helminths are often called infestations.
7. There are multiple, common childhood, vaccine-preventable infectious diseases. Of the 10, name three and describe how they are commonly spread.
Answers:
Measles, caused by rubeola virus, is spread by respiratory droplets or airborne transmission.
Mumps is caused by the paramyxovirus and is spread with respiratory secretions or saliva through fomites.
Rubella (German measles) is caused by the rubella virus. It is highly contagious and is spread by respiratory droplets, airborne transmission, or transmitted from a woman to her fetus.
Whooping cough is a highly contagious bacterial infection caused by Bordetella pertussis. The bacteria are spread by contact with respiratory droplets.
Diphtheria is a highly contagious bacterial disease caused by Corynebacterium diptheriae, which is primarily spread by respiratory droplets; transmission by fomites is rare.
Tetanus is a bacterial infection caused by Clostridium tetani. The bacteria are found in contaminated soil and animal excrement and enter the body via wounds.
Chickenpox is a contagious viral infection caused by the varicella zoster virus. The virus is spread by direct contact, droplet transmission, and airborne transmission.
Haemophilus influenzae type b is a bacterium spread by respiratory droplets.
Poliomyelitis is caused by the polio virus. Transmission occurs either by person-to-person or by contact with infectious saliva or feces or contaminated sewage or water.
Streptococcus pneumoniae is a bacterium that is transmitted by respiratory droplets.
