Epidermiology• WHO declared TB a global emergency in
1993• Worldwide, one third of the population has
been infected M. Tuberculosis• About 8 million people develop disease
every year• It kills more than 3 million people annual.
Yet is completely curable and (relatively) inexpensive to cure
• Countries : Africa, China, India, Indonesia, Pakistan, Russia
Etiology
• TB is caused by an organism called Mycobacterium tuberculosis (tubercle bacilli) that spread from person to person through air
• Some characterictics of M. Tuberculosis slightly curved rod shaped bacilli thick lipid cell wall aerobic non- motile multiply / grow slowly ( about every 20
hours)
Mycobacterium which is carried by humans. Mycobacterium T.B. can present it self in the
human body in different forms effecting any where from “the intestines, bones, joints, skin, and the genitourinary, lymphatic, and nervous systems.”
transmitted by ingestion and inhalation of aerosolized infectious organisms from feces. Oral ingestion of food and water contaminated with feces is the most common method of infection. Once ingested, the organism spreads throughout the bird's body and is shed in large numbers in the feces. If the bacterium is inhaled, pulmonary lesions and skin invasions may occur transmission of avian TB is from bird to human not from human to human.
Avian which is carried by birds
people contract Bovine TB today,by eating food that has been contaminated by the bacteria or from drinking un-pasteurized milk from cows that are infected with the virus. Bovine TB is most likely going to effect the joints and bones.
Bovine tuberculosis is carried by cattle.
PathophysiologyGerms coughed / sneezed ( aerosol through droplet nuclei inborne)
Inhaled organ (person) healthy
Attached to the airway / lung
Located / breed cytoplasm makroflag
Bronchopneumonia develops in the lung tissue
Primary infection (eruption of coughing, formation of lesions)
Respiratory tract inflammation ( Lymphangitis regional )
Primary complex
Recovery Scar heal in a period time Complication
Left :Healthy lungsRight : Lungs infected with Mycobacterium Tuberculosis
General Symptoms
• lack of appetite and weight loss• a high temperature (fever)• night sweats• extreme tiredness or fatigue• Cough ( 2-3 weeks or more )• Cough up blood• Chest pains
However, TB can also cause additional symptoms depending on which part of the body is infected.
TB infection vs. TB disease
• TB infectionTB germs stay in your lungs but do not multiply or make you sick
• TB diseaseTB germs stay in your lungs or move to other parts of your body, multiply and make you sick ( can pass the TB germs to other people )
Pulmonary TB
Most infections affect the lungs, which can cause:• a persistent cough that lasts more than three
weeks and usually brings up phlegm, which may be bloody
• breathlessness that gradually gets worse
Extrapulmonary TBLess commonly, TB infections develop in areas outside the lungs ( patients who infected HIV)
Symptoms of extrapulmonary TB vary, but can include:
• persistently swollen glands• abdominal (tummy) pain• pain and loss of movement in an affected bone or
joint• confusion• a persistent headache• seizures (fits)
Clinical Biochemistry Parameters(Lab scale)
Clinical testPhysical exam → lymph nodes for swelling and use a stethoscope to listen → sounds of lungs
false(+)→ BCG vaccine Skin test false(-) → children, older or AIDS people
Blood test → active tuberculosis Imaging test → CT scan > X-rays (white spot) Rapid sputum (phlegm) test → drug- resistant strains test TB PCR (polymerase chain reaction) test → DNA TB BACTEC test Serology test → IgG antibody
Risk factor• HIV/AIDS• Diabetes• End-stage kidney disease (ESRD)• Certain cancers• Cancer treatment, such as chemotherapy• Drugs to prevent rejection of transplanted
organs• Some drugs used to treat rheumatoid
arthritis, Crohn's disease and psoriasis• Malnutrition• Very young or advanced age
Clinical Manifestation
Relatively large of patients
year Inslusion criteria country Type of medical
center
• AcutePrimary infection
(rapid clinical course)
More common than acute disease
• Subacute• chronic
Treatment- multiply drug therapy
First line medications:Isoniazid
Rifampicin Pyrazinamide
EthambutolStreptomycin
Second line medications:
FluoroquinolonesCycloserineEthionamide
Aminoglycosides p-amino salicylic acid
New TB drugs:(drug-resistant combination treatment)
BedaquilineDelamanid
PA-824LinezolidSutezolid
Side effect:• Nausea or vomiting• Loss of appetite• A yellow color to your skin (jaundice)• Dark urine• A fever that lasts three or more days and has no obvious cause
Treatment periods6-12months
Monitoring
Sputum Test
-examine mucous characteristic of TB -active pulmonary (lung) tuberculosis disease.-regular intervals
Complications-Permanent damage to the lungs-Spread to other organs and organ damage-Development of strains of TB bacteria that are resistant to typical drugs-Death
Side Effect Of Medications
-liver inflammation -changes in vision rarely, kidney or nerve damage
