Term
type 2 hypersensitivity characteristics |
|
Definition
- response from hours to days later (after exposure to antibody)
- Antibody mediated (not igE goes igG or igM)
|
|
|
Term
type 2 hypersensitivity
EX: transfusion reactions-ABO |
|
Definition
- major reaction is: donor antigens (what is on the donor RBC) to recipient antibodies (whats in the recipient)
- natural antibodies arise in early infancy
- RBC agglutination and lysis --> death
- prevention: is to get the right match
|
|
|
Term
type 2 hypersensitivity
EX: transfusion reactions- Rh factor |
|
Definition
- 85% population Rh+ (have Rh Ag) 15% Rh- (have NO Ag)
- reactions occur in Rh- people who receive Rh+ blood after being sensitized
- similar to ABO reaction
|
|
|
Term
type 2 hypersensitivity
EX: hemolytic disease of newborn |
|
Definition
- Rh- mom has first Rh+ baby and becomes sensitized and makes anti-Rh antibodies
- second Rh+ baby suffers attack of moms antibodies --> anemia, death
- prevention (get Rhogam shot through IM <intramuscular>)
- (given to Rh- mothers)
|
|
|
Term
type 3 hypersensitivity
characteristics |
|
Definition
- response from hours to days later
- antibody antigen complexes form if increased antigens present
- deposit in small blood vessels, esp. in skin, joints, kidneys
- stimulate clotting, inflammation and tissue damage
|
|
|
Term
type 3 hypersensitivity
EX: glomerulonephritis |
|
Definition
(affects kidneys) after untreated strep throat
~glomeruli are gone
~kidney tissue does NOT grow back when it dies, lose enough tissue kidneys will NOT be able to function |
|
|
Term
type 4 hypersensitivity characteristics |
|
Definition
- delayed response peaks at 2-3 days later
- cell mediated (T cell response)
- sensitized T cells exposed to antigen
- release cytokines and call in macrophages and killer T cells
- tissue damaged through inflammation and cell death
|
|
|
Term
type 4 hypersensitivity
EX: tuberculin skin test |
|
Definition
- read within 48 to 72 hours
- positive test will leave red pump on arm where the injection took place
|
|
|
Term
type 4 hypersensitivity
EX: contact dermatitis |
|
Definition
- poison oak, metal jemelry, latex products
- treatment (cortizone cream, take meds, contact cream is more helpful)
|
|
|
Term
type 4 hypersensitivity
EX: tissue transplant rejection |
|
Definition
prevention: on antiprojection drugs the rest of your life, supress immune system |
|
|
Term
type 1 hypersensitivity
EXAMPLES |
|
Definition
- localized anaphylaxis
- generalized (systemic) anaphylaxis
|
|
|
Term
type 1 hypersensitivity treatment and prevention |
|
Definition
treatment
- antihistamines (localized reactions)
- bronchodilators (rescue inhaler, asthma attack)
- steroids (preventative use, keeps down inflammation)
- epinephrine (adrenaline, when in crisis)
prevention
- avoid triggers
- immunotherapy to stimulate igG (allergy shot against the allergen neutralize any allergen found in blood)
|
|
|
Term
what causes an allergic reaction? |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
type 1 hypersensitivity
EX: generalized (systemic) anaphylaxis |
|
Definition
this reaction occurs body wide, leads to schock
- esp. bee stings, peanuts, penicillin
- blood vessels dilate
- fluid loss from blood
- low BP-->anaphylactic schock-->organ failure
- bronchoconstriction-->respiratory failure
- death
|
|
|
Term
categories of immunologic disorders |
|
Definition
~types 1-4
~allergens-->allergies
- autoimmune diseases
- immune deficiency disorders
|
|
|
Term
type 1 hypersensitivity
characteristics |
|
Definition
- immediate response (with exposure to the allergen)
- antibody mediated (igE)
- must be sensitized by initial exposure to antigen, upon subsequent exposures, release inflammatory mediators
- genetic tendency for increased igE
|
|
|
Term
what has to happen to start a reaction? |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
type 1 hypersensitivity
EX: localized anaphylaxis |
|
Definition
- hives also called urticaria (wheal and flare resonse,blisters and redness)
- hayfever, allergic rhinitis (upper respiratry, sneezing)
- asthma(lower respiratory, bronchioles, mucous production, can be life threatening)
|
|
|
Term
type 2 hypersensitivity examples |
|
Definition
- transfusion reactions: ABO
- transfusion reactions: Rh factor
- hemolytic disease of the newborn
|
|
|
Term
type 3 hypersensitivity examples |
|
Definition
glomerulonephritis after untreated strep throat |
|
|
Term
type 4 hypersensitivity examples |
|
Definition
- tuberculin skin test
- contact dermatitis
- tissue transplant rejection
|
|
|
Term
autoimmune disease characteristics |
|
Definition
- body sees self as a foreign
- uses antibodies and/or immune cells to attack tissues (ex: killer T cells)
- attack may be localized (only one organ affected, ex: graves, diabetes) or widespread (systemic, ex:lupus)
|
|
|
Term
autoimmune disease examples |
|
Definition
- rheumatoid arthritis (RA)
- multiple sclerosis (MS)
|
|
|
Term
autoimmune disease
EX: rheumatoid arthritis (RA) |
|
Definition
effects joints and focuses on limbs, antibody attack on the collagen of joints, destroys collagen and replaces with scare tissue |
|
|
Term
autoimmune disease
EX: multiple sclerosis (MS) |
|
Definition
autoimmune, cellular attack on mylein sheath of neuron anything that has nerves can be infected, can do remissions, cut off age is 50 |
|
|
Term
immune deficiency disorders
characteristics |
|
Definition
- loss of immune function
- types:
~primary: genetic or developmental (before your born)
~secondary: acquired via immunosuppressive drugs, cancer, infections, chronic stress, increasing age or maturation (when your born) |
|
|
Term
