1. Natural Active Immunity pathogens enter body and cause illness; antibodies form in host
2. Artificial Active Immunity vaccine is injected into person. No illness results, but antibodies
form.
3. Natural Passive Immunity Antibodies directly passed from mother to child to provide temporary
protection.
Example: Ingestion of breast ,ilk
4. Type I Hypersensitivity IgE mediated, Anaphylaxis, seasonal allergies, hay fever, food aller-
gies such as shellfish and peanuts
5. pH 7.35-7.45
6. PaCO2 35-45
7. HCO3 22-26
8. Immunodeficiency -immune system with decreased or compromised response to dis-
ease-causing organisms
-Increased risk of cancer
9. "Self" antigen -Normally ignored by the immune system
-Tolerence
10. "Non-self" antigen -Foreign
-Specific response to a specific antigen
-Stored in memory cells for future reference
11. Chain of Infection • Infectious agent
• Reservoir (for infectious agent)
• Portal of exit
• Mode of transmission

• Portal of entry
• Susceptible host
12. Incubation Period "something sneaks in"
Time between entry of
organism into the body and
appearance of clinical signs of
disease
Varies considerably with
different organism
13. Prodromal Period "something is off"
Fatigue, loss of appetite,
headache
Nonspecific—"coming down
with something"
More evident in some
infections than others
14. Acute Period YOU'RE FULLY SICK
Infectious disease
develops fully
15. Local signs of inflamma- -pain, swelling, redness, warmth
tion -if bacterial: purulent exudate
-if viral: serous, clear exudate
16. purulent exudate (pus)
a thick, opaque, and often foul-smelling fluid produced by the body
during intense inflammation or severe infection
17. serous exudate a thin, watery, and transparent (or slightly yellow/pink) fluid that
commonly leaks from wounds during the initial healing stages

18. Systemic signs of inflam- • Fever may be present
mation • Fatigue and weakness
• Headache
• Nausea
19. Factors that delay wound -Old age (less mitosis)
healing -poor nutrition
-dehydration
-anemia
-circulatory problems
-infection
-chemotherapy
20. Macrophage large phagocyte found in lymph nodes and other tissues of the body.
Eats pathogens
21. Metaplasia replacement of a mature cell type to another cell type
22. Metastasis The spread of cancer cells beyond their original site
23. osteoporosis A condition in which the body's bones become weak and break
easily.
24. Pathogenesis how a disease develops
25. Prognosis expected outcome of a disease
26. morbidity disease rates within a group
27. Mortality relative number of deaths caused by a disease
28. hyperplasia increase in number of cells
Example: Breast tissue during puberty or pregnancy
