PRESENTATION ON COMMON COMMUNICABLE DISEASE
ZOONOSIS&
RABIES
zoonosis
ZOONOSIS Zoonosis is also called zoonotic disease . It
refers to the disease which can be passed from animal to human beings . According to centres for disease control in Atlanta .The most emerging disease around the world are zoonotic . The director of CDC has said that 11 of the last 12 emerging infaction in the world with serious health consequences has arisen from animal sources. This rise in the number of zoonotic disease is due to wild animal trade across the countries and keeping of animal as domestic pets.
Animal Disease
Bats Rabies and viral infection
Cat Plague,Anthrax,Cowpox,Tape worm and Bacterial infection
Dogs Plague,tape worm, rabies,rocky mountain spotted fever and lyme disease
Horses Anthrax, rabies, salmonella infections
Cattle Anthrax,European tick borne encephalitis, rabies, tapeworm, salmonella infection
Pigs Tape worm,anthrax,influenza,rabies
Rabbits Plagu ,Q-fever
Birds Salmonellosis,Campylobacteriosis,chlamydia psittaci, pasteurella multocida, histoplasm capsulatum
There are different methods of transmission of zoonotic diseases. There are:
A) Direct contact : Infectious disease can spread by being near
to an infected animal especially coming in close contact with infected animal.
B) By ingestion : Some diseases occur in human beings after
ingesting the flesh of an animal. For exampel – Tape worm can spread to human when people eat meat of infected cattle, swine etc . Even drinking water which contains eggs of parasite, can cause disease in man
C) Vector Borne : The disease spread by insect vectors
such as flea or tick, as they feed on infected animal and on human beings and these blood feeding insect often carry the disease from animal to human .
RABIES
IntroductionsRabies is a zoonotic disease which is cause by
LYSSAVIRUS Type -1 of family RHABDOVIRIDAE.
It is know as HYDROPHOBIA. It is deadly virus disease affecting the central nerveous system. It is almost contracted to rabid animal . It is widely distributed acroos the globe. More than 55000 people die each year due to rabies . Most human deats follow abite from an infected dog. The victims of dog bite are under the age of 15, which is about 30-60 %.
In India , it occurs in all part of country except Andaman & Nicobar Islands, Lakshadweep. Every year 1.1 to 1.5 million people receive anti rabies treatment. More than 95 % of these cases are bitten by dogs.
Epidemiological Triad AGENT(Lyssavirus type 1of
Rhabdoviridae family)
HOST ENVIRONMENT
(Warm blooded (Rabid dog population
mammals) -stray dogs , bats)
AGENT The causative organism is lyssavirus type
1 family rhabdoviridae. The virus is excreted through saliva of
affected animal,. Saliva of rabid animal is source of infection.
Rabies occurs in three epidemiological forms such as urban, wild life & bat rabies .
One rabid dog is capable of biting a large number of human & animals.
HOST Warm blooded mammals including man is
at high risk for rabies. Dog handlers Hunters Veterinarians Laboratory staff working with rabies
virus.
ENVIRONMENTAL FACTOR Rabid dogs and cats, which have the
rabies virus in saliva. Vampire bat Jackal ,fox ,hyena are wild life carriers
which are the main reservoir and transmitter of rabies.
MODE OF TRANSMISSION By bite of an infected animal Open scratch or wound in contact with
infectious material such as blood or saliva of an infected animal.
Human to human in case of corneal transplant from an infected individual.
By mucous membrane when it comes in contact with material.
INCUBATION PERIOD : Two to eight weeks
CLINICAL MANIFESTATIONS The first symptom can appear a few days to
more than year after being infected by bite . The distinctive sign of rabies infection is a tingling or twitching sensation around the area of the animal bite. It is accompained by :-
Fever Headache Muscle aches Loss of appetite Nausea Fatigue
As the infection progress, then Irritiability Confusion Agitation Abnormal thoughts Posture change Convulsions Paralysis Extreme sensitivity to bright light, sound ,
touch Increased production of saliva or tears Difficulty in speaking
In advanced stages, it spreads to nervous system ,then patient has:
Double vision Problems moving facial muscles Abnormal movements of diaphragm Difficulty in swallowing Increased production of saliva causing
foaming at mouth.
DIAGNOSIS History of bite by a rabid animal Clinical signs/symptoms especially
hydrophobia Antigen detection using immuno
fluorescence of skin biopsy Isolation of virus from saliva
PREVENTION AND CONTROL OF RABIES
A) Early diagnosis :
Early dignosis of rabies , with or without laboratory confirmation is important for prevention of exposure of health care workers and for initiation of specific therapy . Early clinical features of rabies are pain ,paresthesia & prurities at site of virus entry . Patients should be diagnosed and those who need aggressive care must be admitted to hospital where they can have access to critical care unit.
TREATMENT In case , a dog has bitten a man ,then Promptly scrub the site with water & soap Apply alcohol on wound Administer rabies immuno-globulin (RIG)
around the site of bite Administer fine doses of tissue culture
vaccine including human diploid cell rabies vaccine on the days 0,3,7,14 and 28 after exposure.
Other measures of tretment include: 1) Isolation : The patient of rabies should be isolated in
dark room and quite room, where the stimuli are less, as the stimuli may precipitate the spasms or convulsions.
2) Reduce anxiety and pain : The patient & anxiety can be relieved by
admini- stering sedatives such as morphine sulphate to allay acute sufferings.
3)Hydration : patient should be hydrated but make sure that
the I/V fluid bottles are covered. Monitor urine output as to assess the kidney function.
4) Intensive care :If the patient is having respiratory or cardiac
problem due to rabies, then patient should be kept in intensive care unit to provide intensive care.
5) Vaccine :Vaccine used is rabies is rabies human diploid cell
vaccine (HDCV) and tissue culture vaccine. It should be given to high risk groups like animal handlers, lab workers, zoo keepers, trappers etc.
It given either I/M or I/D . The three doses are on the day 0 then 7th,then 21st or 28th day.Booster dose is required after every two years,
Who are at risk of contracting rabies. This vaccine schedule is before the exposure to rabies .and after exposure to rabies ,RIG &vaccine schedule is followed as given under treatment.
Control the dogs/animals causing rabies &proper handling :-
Remove all stray dogs and cats Have all pets (dogs& cats)vaccinated. Do not allow bats to live in house chimney Avoid picking up dead or abandoned animals. Do not eat animal that do not look normal use gloves while skinning animals and
handling nervous tissue or organs.
NURSING MANAGEMENT Isolate the patient Provide optimum comfort Darken the room and provide quiet
environment Patient should not be bathed and there
should not running water in room or near the room at hearing distance.
I/V fluids should be wrapped and needle should be securely anchored to avoid Dislodging.
