‫‪coxiella burneti similar to Richettsiae‬‬
 small gram negative

non-motile

it difficult to study because cannot be cultured on

artificial media

coxiella burneti cultured in yolk sac of achich

embryo

coxiella burneti charactarized by resistant to

heat ,drying and disinfectant.
so this feature
permit to it to survive for long period in
enviroment

survive one hour at 60 C

COXIELLA burneti CONSIDE zoonatic

disease
reservior host
cows,sheep,cattel,goats

Transsmision

C.burneti transsmitted by

a- ticks
b- frome one animales to another in infected milk
DISEASE CAUSED BY COXIELLA.BURNETI

A-
Q FEVRE

known with name

RED RIVER FEVER

this disease present usually in

Zaire

Mine mile fever

How human infected

by the folloeing

a- bite of infected ticks

b-drinking untreated infected milk

c-inhaling infected aerosols

d- handling infected animales

symptoms of Qfever
 high fever
headache
body pain
slight rash
sore throat
vomiting
nausea
non-productive cough
confusion

complication of untreated QFEVER

pneumonia(similar to virus pneumoa
chronic infected endocarditis
 liver disease

C.burneti parasitized in

a- histiocytes of the spleen

b- Kupffer cell of the liver

so due to the presence in liver and spleen the tow

organe become enlarged

Incubation period

depend on the number of the organisms initially

infected the patient

infection with greater number willresult in shorter

incubation period

most patient become ill within 2-3 weeks after

exposure

DIAGNOSIS
bu using serological test
such as
 a- complement fixation

b-ELIZA

Treatment

byusing

a-

Doxycycline
b-
tetracycline

Q fever in pregnancy is difficut to treated because

the Doxycycline are contrindicated in pregnacy

so use

Co-trimoxazole

Infectious Disease Transmission
in Healthcare Work
 Infectious diseases are transmitted from human to
human primarily by three routes: (1) direct contact with
an infected patients blood or secretions or a
contaminated surface; (2) transmission via large
droplets; or (3) transmission via small droplets
(aerosolization or airborne). With most respiratory
pathogens, including influenza, the relative contribution
of each of these types of transmission has not been
adequately studied. This paucity of definitive data on
influenza transmission is a critical gap in the knowledge
base needed to develop and implement effective
prevention strategies. Without knowing the
contributions of each of the possible route(s) of
transmission, all routes must be considered probable
and consequential, and the resources needed for
prevention and control strategies cannot be rationally
focused to maximize preparedness efforts. Although it
has been 70 years since the influenza A virus was
discovered and despite the recognition that it can cause
yearly epidemics worldwide resulting in severe illness
and death, little is known about the mechanisms by
which influenza A is transmitted or its viability and
infectivity outside the host. Debate continues about
whether influenza transmission is primarily via the
airborne or droplet routes and the extent of the
contribution of the contact route (including contact with
blood, fecal matter, or contaminated surfaces).
Unfortunately, many healthcare employers and state and
local health departments ignore the US Institute Of
Medicine IOM) recommendation and growing scientific
evidence of airborne transmission of flu (including the
H1N1 flu) because they view the needed changes to
infection control procedures too burdensome For more
on the transmission of flu in the healthcare setting, go to
the IOM 2008 report at
http://books.nap.edu/openbook.php?rec... . This is
clipped from the 11 minutes video, Personal Protection
Against Infection, from the nonprofit Ontario Safety
Association for Community and Healthcare and
available for purchase at
http://www.osach.ca/products/catalog/... .
This video covers the basics of infection control for
health care support staff, from modes of transmission to
hand washing to the use of personal protective
equipment.
