NCM 112 - MEDSURG LECTURE | Finals Saprophyticus, Staphylococcus GENITOURINARY (GU) SYSTEM epidermidis and Candida albicans URINARY TRACT INFECTION NEPHRITIS Upper Urinary Tract Infections General term is referring to inflammation of the kidney (nephritis and pionephritis) Kidneys. Pyelonephritis is inflammation of the Lower Urinary Tract Infections renal parenchyma Infection of the urinary bladder (Cystitis) E coli is the most common cause of Urethra (Urethritis) nephritis and pyelonephritis Prostate (Prostatitis) in male Most often, it is perceded by cyctitis; the bacteria migrate up the ureters, from the A WET BED urinary bladder to the kidneys. Bacteria ❖ Acid base balance may also gain access to the kidney via the bloodstream. ❖ Water removal ❖ Erythropoiesis URETERITIS ❖ Toxin Removal ❖ Blood Pressure Control Inflammation of one or both ureters. ❖ Electrolyte Imbalance Usually due to the spreading of infection ❖ Vitamin D Activations upward from the urinary bladder or downward from the kidneys. PYELONEPHRITIS URETHRITIS Pyelonephritis - kapag sobrang taas na, colonized with bacteria na. Inflammation of the urethra. Pathogens are usually transmitted sexually. The URINARY TRACT INFECTION (UTI) most common causes of urethritis are Chlamydia trachomatis, Neisseria ❖ UTI may be caused by any of the variety of gonorrhoeae, ureaplasmas, and microorganisms introduced by: mycoplasmas. Poor personal hygiene Urethritis that is not caused by N. Sexual intercourse gonorhea is often referred to as Insertion of catheters (3-4 days) and nonspecific urethritis (NSU) or other means (urinal catheter, the urine nongonococcal urethritis (NGU) bag should be hanged and not placed on Greenish discharge – Tulo sa mga inheat the floor) palagi! ❖ The urinary tract is usually protected PROSTATITIS from pathogens by the frequent flushing action of the urination. Inflammation of the prostate gland. ❖ The acidity of normal urine also discourages Most often, prostatitis is not an growth of many microorganisms. infectious disease.

The balance among these microbes depends on the estrogen levels and pH of the site. BARTHOLINITIS Inflammation of the Bartholin’s ducts in females. (Gilid ng kiffy) EPIDIDYMITIS Inflammation of the epididymis (an elongated structure connected to the testis) 2 NCM 112 - MEDSURG LECTURE | Finals Sexually Transmitted Disease of the Genital Tract The term STD, formerly called Venereal Disease (VD), includes any PELVIC INFLAMMATORY DISEASE (PID) of the infections transmitted by sexual Inflammation of the fallopian tubes; also activities. They are diseases not only the known as Salpingitis. genital and urinary tracts, but also by the skin, mucous membranes, blood, lymphatic and digestive systems, and many other body areas. Epidemic STDs include acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS), chlamydial and herpes infections, gonorrhea and syphilis. The AIDS VIRUS (HIV) primarily causes damage to helper T cells and thus inhibits antibody production. VIRAL STD ANOGENITAL HERPES VIRAL INFECTIONS, Liver – Fitz Hugh Curtis Syndrome GENITAL HERPES Once it reaches the liver – Violin String Adhesion Herpes Simplex Infections are (Dikit-dikit na string) – Pain in the right characterized by a localized primary upperquadrant lesion, latency and a tendency to localized recurrence. VAGINITIS In women, the primary sites are the Inflammation of the vagina. Can be cervix and the vulva and wih recurrnt caused by Candida Albicans (a yeast), diseases affecting the vulva, perineal Trichomonas vaginalis (protozoan) and skin, legs and buttocks. a mixture of bacteria in the genera In men, lesions appear on the penis, and Mobiluncus and Gardnerella which is in the anus and rectum of persons referred to as Bacterial Vaginosis engaging in anal sex. (BV) Vaginismus – nagla-lock INITIAL SYMPTOMS are usually itching, Pap Smear tingling and soreness, followed by a small patch of Metronidazole and Clyndamycin redness and then a group of small, painful blisters. Strong fish-like odor The blisters break and fuse to form painful, circular sores, which become Buring sensation while urination crusted after a few days. The sores heal VULVOVAGINITIS in about 10 days but may leave scars. The initial outbreak is more painful, Inflammation of the vulva (external genitalia of females in the vagina) prolonged, and widespread than subsequent outbreaks and may be associated with fever. Gonorrhea – Ceftriaxole GENITAL WARTS, GENITAL PAPILLOMATOSIS, CANDYLOMA ACUMINATUM Genital warts start as tiny, soft, moist, pink or red swellings, which grow rapidly and may develop stalks. Their rough surfaces give them the appearance of small cauliflowers. MULTIPLE WARTS often grow in the same area, most often on the penis in males, and in the vulva, vaginal wall, 3 NCM 112 - MEDSURG LECTURE | Finals cervix, and skin surrounding the vaginal sexual abuse); and mother-to-neonate area in women. Genital warts also during birth. develop around the anus and in the rectum in males and females who SYPHILIS engage in anal sex. A treponemal disease that occurs in Pathogen: Genital warts are caused by three stages: primary siphilis – a HPVs of the Papovaviridae family DNA painless lesion known as a chancre viruses (human wart viruses). HPV Secondary syphilis – a skin rash (palms genotypes 16 and 18 have been and soles) about 4-6 weeks later, with associated with cervical cancer. fever and mucous membrane lesions, Reservoirs and Made of Transmission: and a long latent period (as long as 5-20 Infected humans serve as reservoirs. years) Transmission occurs via direct contact, Tertiary syphilis – with damage to the usually sexual; through breaks in skin or CNS, cardiovascular system, visceral mucous membranes; or from mother to organs, bones, sense organs and other neonate during birth sites. Laboratory Diagnosis: Usually Caused by T. pallidum and transmitted diagnosed clinically, Molecular via direct contact with lesions, body diagnostic procedures are available. secretions, mucous membranes, blood, semen, saliva and vaginal discharge of infected people, usually during sexual BACTERIAL STDs contact; blood transfusions; or Genital Chlamydial Infections, Genital transplacentally from mother to fetus.

PROTOZOAL INFECTIONS OF THE Chlamydia Trachomaits is GENIQUIRINARY SYSTEM considered to be the most common sexually transmitted pathogen. TRICHOMONIASIS The most frequent cause of Sexually transmitted protozoal disease nongonococcal urethritis (NGU), affecting both men and women. The causing mucopurulent urethral disease is usually symptomatic in discharge, urethral itching and women, causing vaginitis with a profuse, burning on urination??? thin, foamy, malodorous, greenish- yellowish discharge. GONORRHEA Gonococcal infections of the GU tract INFECTION DISEASE OF THE CIRCULATORY include urethritis and epididymitis in SYSTEM (hindi gumagaling) males and cervicitis, Bartholinitis, pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), Endocarditis salphingitis, endometritis and vulvovaginitis in females. Myocarditis Urethral discharge and painful urination Bacteremia – presence of bacteria in the are common in infected males, usually bloodstream, which can be, but is not starting 2-7 days after infection always a sign of disease. Infected women may be asymptomatic Transient Bacteremia (temporary for weks or months during which time presence of bacteria in the blood) – often severe damage to reptoductive system results from dental extractions, wounds, may occur. bites, and damage to the intestinals, Caused by Neisseria Gonorrhoeae respiratory, or reproductive tract mucosa.
