1 Diseases Communicable & Non-Communicable EWHS Health

2 Communicable OR Non-Communicable Envelopes….  Get in groups of 4 or 5.  When I say go, take out the cards and place the 2 larger cards in front of you. (Communicable & Non-Communicable)  Place the smaller cards (Disease) into the correct category.  Call me over when you are done.

3 COMMUNICABLENON-COMMUNICABLE ALS – Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Tuberculosis ArthritisHepatitis DiabetesFlu CancerStrep Throat CVD – Cardio-Vascular DiseaseMad Cow - Bovine spongiform encephalopathy Mononucleosis (Mono) Polio

4 Types of Communicable Diseases  Cold and flu  Tuberculosis (affects lungs)  Strep Throat  Encephalitis (inflammation of the brain)  Meningitis (inflammation of the membranes that cover the brain)  Polio (impacts the CNS causes paralysis)  Measles (cold, fever, rash)  Mono (fatigue, swollen glands)  Hepatitis (inflammation of the liver)A, B & C

5 Top Killers…..

6 Communicable Diseases: www.youtube.com/watch?v=m-3Ju0EX3gQ Caused by direct or indirect spread of pathogens from one person to another. They enter and multiply within the human body.

7 Caused by Pathogens  Bacteria (single cell microorganism) –They enter the body and multiply rapidly through cell division. Can live anywhere – air, soil, water – some produce toxins.  Viruses (genetic material coated by protein) –Are not living cells but attach themselves to living cells (hosts) and injects its genetic material into that cell, makes copies and spreads to other cells

8 More Causes  Rickettsias (similar to bacteria) –Most are found in the intestinal tracts of insects (fleas, ticks, mites and also mice) and are passed through bites or through feces deposited on the skin.  Fungi (plant like organisms) –Ring worm or athletes foot. They prefer dark, damp environments and invade deep tissue like hair, nails and skin.

9 How are communicable diseases spread?  DIRECT CONTACT –People, Animals or Environment  INDIRECT CONTACT –Contaminated objects – table, door handles, eating utensils, tooth brush, needles, etc. –Vectors (flies, mosquitoes & ticks) – transfers pathogens from person to person –Water & Food

10 Prevention  Wash hands  Food Handling  Strong Immune System  No Sharing (utensils, make up, combs etc)  Contact with people, etc.  Stress…..  Immunizations

11 Bodies Means of Preventing Communicable Diseases  Physical barriers (skin, mucus, cilia etc)  Chemical barriers (enzymes in saliva and gastric juices)  Immune System Response –Inflammatory Response –Antigen – substance that is capable of triggering an immune response

12 Extra Credit: Disease Interview  Interview someone who suffers or has suffered from a non- communicable disease. (family, friend etc)  Over phone, in person via email.  Develop 10 thought provoking questions and format Q & A’s into magazine format.

13 Communicable Disease Answer Questions in Journal (pages 622-625) 1. Define pathogens 2. What is a Communicable disease? 3. What are the 5 types of pathogen’s and give 3 examples. 4. Explain the differences between a virus and bacteria. 5. Name 3 ways communicable diseases are transmitted. 6. How can you prevent getting a communicable disease? 7. Identify and explain 3 prevention strategies

14 Communicable Disease (pg. 627) 8. Define – inflammatory response, phagocyte, antigen, immunity, lymphocyte, Helper T cells, Killer T cells, Suppressor T cells, antibody, vaccine, active immunity, passive immunity. 9. List 5 parts of physical/chemical barriers. 10. List 8 stages of immune response. 11. How many viruses cause the common cold? 12. Explain memory lymphocytes. 13. Lymphatic system includes your _______, __________,and ___________________. 14. If a lymph node is swollen when should you call the doctor? 15.Where are 6 places your lymphocytes concentrated? 16. How to care for your immune system? (7 ways) 17. Vaccines (define) – live virus, killed virus, toxoids, new & second-generation vaccines.
