More than 30 di昀昀erent sexually transmissible bacteria, viruses, and parasites have been identi昀椀ed. Some can also be transmitted from mother to child during pregnancy and childbirth as well as through blood contact. Some of these are easily eradicated with appropriate treatment, whereas others remain for a lifetime. - Correct answer-Sexually Transmitted Infection What are three type of STIs? - Correct answer-Chlamydia, Gonorrhea, Syphilis Caused by Chlamydia trachomatis, an intracellular parasite that requires a host cell to reproduce. The most commonly reported STI in the United States. Prevalence rates have been on a steady incline in the United States for the past 20 years. - Correct answer-Chlamydia Can be transmitted through sexual contact and from mother to child during childbirth. Complications: neonatal conjunctivitis, PID, epididymitis, prostatitis, infertility, and ectopic pregnancy. Increases the risk for contracting other STIs - Correct answer- Chlamydia Caused by Neisseria gonorrhoeae, an aerobic bacterium with many drug- resistant strains. Rates have been declining but have started to increase again. Second most common STI.

Complications: neonatal conjunctivitis, PID, epididymitis, prostatitis, infertility, ectopic pregnancy, arthritis, dermatitis, and endocarditis - Correct answer-Gonorrhea Ulcerative infection caused by Treponema pallidum, a spirochete that requires a warm, moist environment to survive. Transmitted from skin or mucous membrane contact with chancres and from the mother to child through the placental barrier. Prevalence rates have remained constant for the last 50 years. Rates are highest in men, men who have sex with men (MSM), African Americans, and those living in District of Columbia. - Correct answer-Syphilis How many stages are there in Syphilis? - Correct answer-3 Stages Painless chancres (usually one) form at the site about 2-3 weeks after infection and often go unnoticed and disappear about 4-6 weeks later, even without treatment. Bacteria become dormant, and no other symptoms are present. May not test positive, so testing should be repeated at a later date. Contagious during this stage. - Correct answer-Primary Syphilis Downloaded by Bruce Lee ([email protected]) lOMoARcPSD|43964769 Occurs about 2-8 weeks after the 昀椀rst chancres form. Treatment in the primary stage can decrease the likelihood of developing this stage. Manifestations: generalized, nonpruritic, brown-red rash; malaise; fever; and patchy hair loss. Symptoms will often go away without treatment, and again, the bacteria become dormant. Will test positive (if untreated) and is contagious, especially with direct contact with the rash. - Correct answer- Secondary Syphilis Begins when the secondary symptoms disappear and lasts 1-4 years. Can last for years as the infection spreads to the brain, nervous system, heart, skin, and bones. Complications: blindness, paralysis, dementia, cardiovascular disease, pathological fractures, and death. Will test positive (if untreated) and is only contagious during the early part of this stage - Correct answer-Latent or Tertiary Syphilis Caused by the herpes simplex virus (HSV) - Correct answer-Genital Herpes How many types are there of HSV? - Correct answer-2 Types Occurs above the waist and manifests as a cold. - Correct answer-HSV Type 1 Occurs below the waist. - Correct answer-HSV Type 2 How many stages are there of Genital Herpes? - Correct answer-4 Stages Begins at the actual time of infection and antibody development. May take 2 to 20 days to occur. Manifestations: asymptomatic, a painful lesion, malaise, low-grade fever, and groin lymph node enlargement - Correct answer-Primary Herpes Genitalis Begins once the antibodies are formed. Antibodies do not protect against reinfection but make the recurrent episodes less severe. During this phase, the virus travels up the nerve root and becomes dormant. Asymptomatic while the virus is dormant. - Correct answer-Latent Herpes Genitalis Virus is reactivated but produces no symptoms. Virus is excreted from the body and can be transmitted through sexual contact. This stage occurs infrequently. - Correct answer- Shedding Herpes Genitalis Characterized by the reactivation of the virus and manifestations. Virus travels back down the nerve root to the skin and causes a blister at the same site as with the 昀椀rst stage. Number of reoccurrences varies from none to many in a lifetime. Factors that can trigger a reoccurrence include stress, menstruation, and illness. - Correct answer-Recurrent Herpes Genitalis HPV is benign? - Correct answer-True Downloaded by Bruce Lee ([email protected]) lOMoARcPSD|43964769 can lead to the development of reproductive and anal cancers.
