Chain of Infection Chain of infection contains 6 elements. If broken, infection will not occur. Infectious Agent Portal of Exit Reservoir Mode of Transmission Portal of Entry Susceptible Host Chapter 3

Chain of Infection (cont.) Infectious Agent. Microorganisms that normally reside on the skin. Reservoir. Residence of microorganisms. Fomites are nonliving materials that house microorganisms. Chapter 3

Chain of Infection (cont.) Portal of Exit. Respiratory tract. Skin. Blood. Gastrointestinal tract. Mucous membrane. Mode of Transmission. How a pathogen is transmitted. Can be through direct contact or airborne droplet. Hand washing is one of the most effective means of preventing the spread of pathogens. Chapter 3

Chain of Infection (cont.) Portal of Entry. Respiratory tract, mucous membranes, and gastrointestinal tract are common. Damaged skin. Susceptible Host. One that is capable of being infected. Microorganisms must be present in large enough quantity to be virulent. The host must be susceptible. Individuals with an immunity to certain pathogens will not be susceptible. Chapter 3
