COMMUNICABLE DISEASE
-
Caused by infectious agents whether bacteria /virus spread from person to person.
Contagious - easily transmitted can be airborne/droplet
Infectious - not easily transmitted can be blood borne, food borne, STD’s gonorrhea or chlamydia
“All contagious diseases are infectious but not all infectious are contagious”
Pathogenicity - ability of pathogen to cause a disease.
Virulence - Ability to damage a host.
TOP RANK REVIEWER SUMMARY BY RESURRECCION, CRYSTAL JADE R.N
CHAIN OF INFECTION
Mode of transmission:
●
●
●
●
●
●
Vehicle route - Food, water, Blood or non living thing
Vector borne - infections transmitted by the bite of infected arthropod species, such as mosquitoes, ticks,
triatomine bugs, sandflies, and blackflies.
Example: Aedes mosquito - zika - chikungunya virus
Example: Anopheles mosquito- filariasis, malaria
Example: Culex mosquito - Japanese Encephalitis
Airborne - Droplet nuclei, Remain long in air heavy (small particles at 5mm)
Droplet - large and short distances (up to 6 ft/2 meters) Thru sneezing for a long period of time on the
surface.
Direct contact - tissues or fluids, physical transfer through mucous membranes (eyes and mouth) open
wounds abraded skin.
Indirect - contaminated objects (fomites), unclean hands.

Nasal Diphtheria
Ex: Clear nasal discharge but every becomes blood stained
Cutaneous Diphtheria
Skin ulcers commonly in the legs.
●
Diagnostic test:
●
●
●
Nose/throat swab
Moloney’s test – a test for hypersensitivity to diphtheria toxin
Schick’s test – determines susceptibility to bacteria
Interventions:

PERTUSSIS (WHOOPING COUGH)
Three stages:
1. Catarrheal or Prodromal stage:
● 7-14 days
● Mild fever, headache, colds
● Persistent cough
2. Paroxysmal stage (Spasmodic or whooping stage)

● Less cough and vomiting
Diagnostic Test:
Bordet-gengou agar test - is an enriched, casein peptone medium with potato infusion and glycerol to
supply the nutrients necessary to support the growth of B. pertussis. Defibrinated sheep blood supplies
additional nutrients and enables the detection of hemolytic reactions, which aid in the identification of B.
