Salmonella typhi bacteria causes typhoid fever, resulting in fever, abdominal pain, and possible complications like intestinal bleeding or perforation. It spreads through contaminated food or water. Diagnosis involves blood or stool cultures. Treatment is with antibiotics like ciprofloxacin. Preventing typhoid fever involves proper handwashing, drinking boiled water, and avoiding raw foods when in areas where the disease is common.

2. Typhoid fever is a systemic infection caused by
Salmonella enterica serotype Typhi (S. typhi). The
disease remains an important public health problem in
developing countries.
About 16 million cases of typhoid fever and 600,000
deaths occur yearly worldwide and that more than
90% of this morbidity and mortality occurred in Asia

3. What?
An acute illness with fever caused by
infection with the Salmonella typhi
bacteria contracted from contaminated
water and food. Also called enteric
fever, bilious fever and yellow jack .

4. •Virulent bacterium that cause illness
1.Bacteria called Salmonella typhi.
2.Fecal- • spread through contaminated food or
water and occasionally through direct
oral route contact with someone who is infected.
• These people, called chronic
3.Typhoid carriers, shed the bacteria in their
carriers faeces and are capable of infecting
others.

1st week: elevation of the body temperature
2nd week: abdominal pain, spleen enlargement
and rose spot
3rd week: necrosis of the payer’s patches
Leads to perforation, bleeding .And if left
untreated, death is imminent

11. Blood culture (C&S)
A blood culture during the first week of
the fever can show S. typhi bacteria
Complete blood count (CBC)
A complete blood count (CBC) will show
a high number of white blood cells.

Test whereby bacteria causing typhoid
fever are mixed with serum containing

• Goal : Client can maintain the normal body temperature without
complication
Nursing Intervention Rationale
Monitor patient temperature degree and patterns Fever pattern may aids in diagnosing underlying disease.
Observe for shaking chills and profuse diaphoresis Chills often precede during high temperature
and in presence of generalized infection.
Wash hands with anti-bacterial soap before and after Reduces cross contamination and prevents
each care of activity and encourage proper hygiene. the spread of infection.
Provide tepid sponge baths and avoid the use of ice May help reduce fever .Use of ice water and
water and alcohol. alcohol may cause chills and can elevate
temperature.
Monitor for signs of deterioration of condition or failure May reflect inappropriate antibiotic therapy.

26. Salmonella Typhi causes a protracted bacteremic
illness referred to as typhoid fever. Since humans
are the only reservoir for S. Typhi, infection is
most often acquired through ingestion of food or
water contaminated by feces and urine of infected
persons and chronic carriers.
Typhoid fever is characterized by the
gradual onset of
fever, headache, malaise, anorexia, abdomi
nal pain, hepatosplenomegaly, rose
spots, and changes in mental status.
Laboratory diagnosis can be made by
culture of stool, blood and widal test.

27. Antimicrobial therapy is indicated for patients with typhoid
fever. Typhoid fever cases should be excluded from food
handling, and from direct care of
infants, elderly,immunocompromised, and hospitalized or
institutionalized patients. An individual may return to normal
duties after 3 consecutive negative stool culture taken at least
one month apart, and at least 48 hours after completion of
antibiotic therapy. If without prompt treatment, it can cause
serious complications and can be fatal.
