Skin & Wound infection
2.
3. The wound infections are tow types:
Minor wound infection:
A small incision.
Most self limiting.
Mainly caused by S. aureus and
Some times S. pyogens.
4. Superficial skin infection
Folliculitis is infection of the hair follicles
A carbuncle is a cluster of infected
follicles commonly seen on the neck.
Furuncles (boils) consist of walled-off
collections of organisms and associated
inflammatory cells in follicles and
sebaceous glands that may discharge pus.
5. Bacteria: many terms according to the
causative agents. e.g.: Boils (S. aureus)
impetigo (S. aureus & S. pyogens),
scalded skin syndrome (S. aureus),
cutaneous anthrax (B. anthracis) ... etc.
6. Surgical (post operative) wound infection:
Involve skin and subcutaneous tissue also
muscles, and deeper tissues.
Start with reddening of wound edges with pus
formation.
Pus gathers to form abscess.
Fever may develop
10. Predisposing factors cause
wound infection in hospitals.
Operation involving opening of the bowel.
Presence of foreign bodies.
Long operation.
Large wound.
Obesity.
Anesthesia: stop the normal secretions of the
body which contains many bactericidal.
Treatment by antimicrobial agents gives chance
for resistance (e.g.: Pseudomonas),
11. Burns
Can be infected by the organisms that cause
wound infection (Pseudomonas - S.
pyogens - S. aureus). (Pseudomonas and S.
pyogens have many enzymes that prevent
healing of wound and cause destruction of
the skin).
Compliction:speticeamia
12. Cellulitis
Infection of subcutaneous tissues. Followed by
septicaemia,
Acut pyogenic cellulitis
-the main causative agents are S. pyogenes.
anaerobic cellulitis.
Combination of areobe(coliform,peudomonas,
S,aureus and S. pyogens and anaerobic cocci
Bacteroids and rarely C. perfringens
13. catheters
Wound and foreign body.
Colonization with skin commensal then blood or
other tissues or fluid.
Catheter may be arterial, venous, cannulae.
Causes: S. epidermitis less often coliform,
S.aureus and yeast.
Diagnosis: blood culture, other fludi, culture of
catheter tip.
14. Abscesses
It is pus in subcutaneous tissues surrounded
by thick wall, (inflammation and fibrosis)
Usually the causative agent spread from
hair follicle.
Antibiotic can not reach the organism
inside the fibrosis. (Surgery is a treatment).
The main causative agent is S. aureus.
17. LAB diagnosis :
Specimen:
Pus, wound swab, Blood for culture (post operative
wounds)
Macroscopical examination:
The color differs according to causative agents' e.g.
creamy & thick pus: Staph, straw & water: Strept, fishy
smell: Proteus, musty odor, Green-blue pigment:
Pseudomonas. Present of granules (Grains:
Actinomyces).
18. LAB diagnosis:
Direct gram stains:
Important and helpful.
Culture:
Two Blood Agar (O2 +an O2), CLED (better than
MacConkey) or MacConkey.
KVBA for Bacteroids.
Neomycin BA for Clostridia.
Cooked meat media is helpful
23. Clinical features:
- redness of the wound edges
- pus formation
- fever
Complications:
• wound dehiscence: break down
• spread of infection:
- local
- blood: septicaemia & septic
shock
24.
25. Source:
Endogenous:
- the normal flora:
skin, GIT
- colonization by antibiotic
resistant strains in hospitals
Exogenous:
from:
environment, the staff,
instruments
28. Diagnosis:
specimen:
- Pus or exudate:
collected in
- sterile container
- swab: duplicates
(o2 & ano2)
- Blood for culture:
septicaemia: fever, shock
29. Macroscopy of pus:
S.aureus: creamy, thick,
(intact pus cells)
St.pyogenes: straw-colored, thin
lysis of pus cells
Proteus: fishy smell
Pseudomonas: sweet, fruity
odour, blue pigment
Anaerobic: offensive smell
30. Microscopy:
Gram stained smears:
bacteria & pus cells
Culture:
- 2 plates of blood agar:
one is incubated aerobically
the other in anaerobic conditions
- MacConkey
- Cooked meat broth: anaerobes.
35. 2- Clostridia wound infection:
Gas gangrene:
Causative agents:
Cl. perfringenes (65%)
other gas gangrene group:
Cl.novyi
Cl.septicum
Cl.histolyticum
Cl.sordelli
36. Clinical features:
- a spreading gangrene of the
muscles
- toxaemia
- shock
- wound: edema, blackening of the
tissues, foul smelling exudate
crepitus ( gas under the tissues)
47. Pathogenesis:
contamination of wounds by dirt
and soil containing spores
- The presence of necrotic tissues,
blood clot, foreign body, vascular
damage favour the infection.
- may follow abdominal surgical
operations.
48. - Virulence factors:
alpha toxin: A1
lecithinase C
(phospholipase)
- causes damage to cell
membrane of muscles
other tissues :RBCs
- haemolytic anaemia
- jaundice
50. double zone of haemolysis
Biochemical tests:
toxin detection:
Naglar reaction
51. Bone infection
Acute osteomyelitis:
common in children<10 years
presents with bone pain, fever
Causative agents:
Staphylococcus aureus
Haemophilus influenzae
Streptococcus pyogenes
group B streptococci
54. Septic arthritis:
- occur as an extension of
osteomyelitis
- complication of septicaemia
- following operations or injection
inside joints
Causative agents:
+ N.gonorrhoea
N.meningitidis
Strept.pneumoniae
81. Transmitted by close contact, sexual
confirmed by scraping of skin over
a burrow, pick up female mite
examined by hand lens.
treatment:
topical: Benzylbenzoate
lindane
84. Prolonged heavy infection:
depigmentaion: leopard skin
loss of skin elasticity,
hanging groin
Diagnosis:
skin snip: in normal saline
to see microfilaria
Treatment: Ivermectin
85. Myiasis:
fly maggots (larva) invade
living tissues
- cutaneous myiasis:
maggots penetrate skin
form a small itchy papule
Lymphadenopathy, fever
diagnosis
- Body cavity Myiasis: nose, ear..
103. Guinea worm:
Dracunculus medinensis:
- tissue nematode Transmission:
ingestion of water flea:
Cyclops in drinking water
larva released in gut, migrate
to the s/c tissues
form a papule: ulcerate
104. Larva are released in water,
Ingested by Cyclops to form the
infective larva
