Case Study, Chapter 40, Introduction to Microbiology Mr. Woodby, a 37-year-old male, has a productive cough, headache, and complains of chilling. When he arrives at your clinic his vital signs are: temperature 103.2F, pulse 86, respirations 22, and blood pressure 146/92. His oxygen saturation is 90%. The healthcare provider has ordered a sputum culture and sensitivity. (Learning Objectives 4, 6, 9,10) 1. When you return to assist Mr. Woodby in obtaining the sputum specimen, he asks why the healthcare provider is ordering this test. How do you respond? 2. Mr. Woodby expresses concern about transmitting his infection to his young children. What can you teach him to help prevent the spread of his infection? 3. What is the single best way the nurse can prevent the spread of Mr. Woodby's infection to other clients at the clinic? I

Clinical application: An 83-year-old woman is hospitalized with pneumonia. She is given penicillin and is discharged seven days later, when her symptoms subside. The same patient is readmitted again with pneumonia, two weeks later. A lung biopsy shows no bacteria or viruses. The patient is given broad-spectrum antibiotics, and she returns home after 8 days in the hospital. When the patient develops pneumonia again, a bronchoscopy shows septate hyphae in her lung tissue. The patient keeps no pets, she is not a gardener, and she is not fond of the outdoors. Investigators find some sparrows nesting outside her bedroom window, and some Aspergillus is cultured from her humidifier. (a) What is your guess about the identity of the pathogen? (b) Why did it take so long to diagnose this pathogen? (c) Why did the woman's infection keep returning?

Case Study #6: A 20 year old male college student develops a fever after gall bladder surgery and has a pus exudate around the incision. You receive a cotton swab of the exudate which you streak on a blood agar plate. Bacterial colonies on the plate show B hemolysis, and microscopic examination reveals Gram + cocci occurring singly, in pairs, and in short chains. Further testing reveals that the isolate is catalase negative and phenol red fermentation broth with mannitol turns yellow. 1. What is the name of the most likely bacterium causing this infection? 2. What is the most likely place that this bacterium originated to cause this infection?
