- State the infective micro-organisms of the human body and describe the host parasite relationship.
- List pathogenic micro-organisms (bacteria, viruses, parasites, fungi) and describe the pathogenesis of the diseases produced by them.
- State or indicate the modes of transmission of pathogenic and opportunistic organisms and their sources, including insect vectors responsible for transmission of infection.
- Describe the mechanisms of immunity to infections.
- Acquire knowledge on suitable antimicrobial agents for treatment of infections and scope of immunotherapy and different vaccines available for prevention of communicable diseases.
- Apply methods of disinfection and sterilization to control and prevent hospital and community acquired infections.
- Recommend laboratory investigations regarding bacteriological examination of food, water, milk and air.
- SKILLS
At the end of the course, the student should be able to:
- Plan and interpret laboratory investigations for the diagnosis of infectious diseases and to correlate the clinical manifestations with the etiological agent.
- Identify the common infectious agents with the help of laboratory procedures and use antimicrobial sensitivity tests to select suitable antimicrobial agents.
- Perform commonly employed bed-side tests for detection of infectious agents such as blood film for malaria, filaria, gram staining and AFB staining and stool sample for ova cyst.
- Use the correct method of collection, storage and transport of clinical material for microbiological investigations.
- INTEGRATION
The student should understand infectious diseases of national importance in relation to the clinical, therapeutic and preventive aspects.
